Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your concrete surface is level and fully cured. Position the bracket, mark the pre-drilled hole locations, and drill into the concrete using a masonry bit suitable for your chosen anchor bolts. Secure the bracket firmly to the concrete using heavy-duty masonry expansion bolts. Once the bracket is locked down, insert your 81 x 81 mm timber post into the sleeve and fasten it using galvanized timber screws or coach bolts through the side holes.
Compatibility is strictly limited to 81 x 81 mm square posts. While the galvanized coating is highly durable, you can maintain the aesthetic appearance and structural integrity by periodically checking that fasteners have not loosened due to thermal expansion and contraction. Avoid using harsh chemicals to clean the steel, as this may scratch the galvanized finish; a simple wash with mild soap and water is sufficient.
