Its key benefit is providing a strong, weather-resistant connection for four wooden posts, simplifying complex joinery.

This connector is made from hot-dip galvanised steel for longevity, features pre-drilled holes for easy installation, and offers a versatile solution for various garden projects.

This connector is designed for wooden posts that fit within the 81 x 81 mm dimensions of the internal slots.
You should use screws suitable for outdoor wood construction with a diameter of up to 10 mm. The length will depend on the thickness of your wooden posts.
Yes, its heavy-duty construction and hot-dip galvanised steel make it suitable for building durable outdoor structures, including pergolas, gazebos, and shelters.
No, screws are not included with the connector. You will need to purchase appropriate screws separately.
The connector is made from hot-dip galvanised steel, which offers excellent resistance to weather and rust, ensuring long-term outdoor use.
While the galvanised coating provides protection, you can paint it with a suitable metal primer and paint if desired for aesthetic reasons. However, avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the coating.
GeZu Impex offers a range of post connectors in various designs, including 2-post, 3-post (T-form), 4-post, and 4-post T-form configurations, as well as L-shape and Y-shape connectors.
Ensure the wooden post dimensions match the 81 x 81 mm opening. If the post is slightly smaller, consider using shims or adding extra screws for a tighter fit. If the post is too large, it will not fit.
Verify that the screws used are appropriate for wood and have the correct length and diameter (up to 10 mm). Ensure the wood is not too soft or degraded. Pre-drilling pilot holes in the wood can sometimes improve screw grip.
This is uncommon for hot-dip galvanised products. Inspect the coating for any damage. Minor surface rust can sometimes occur and may need to be addressed with a wire brush and touch-up galvanising paint if persistent.
