The Ecoscape Balustrade Bolt Down Support (95mm x 95mm x 700mm) is designed for professional builders and DIY enthusiasts seeking to create secure, rigid balustrade installations. It provides a robust internal reinforcement for newel posts, ensuring long-term structural stability on decking and patio surfaces. While it excels at reinforcing posts, installers should note that it requires a solid substrate for the bolt-down fixings to be effective, meaning it is not suitable for loose gravel or soft ground without proper foundation work.

The support measures 95mm x 95mm with a total height of 700mm.
Yes, provided you use appropriate masonry anchors to secure the base plate to the concrete substrate.
It is designed for hollow newel posts that accommodate a 95mm internal support.
You will need a drill for the pilot holes and a socket set or wrench to secure the bolts to the substrate.
Always utilize all pre-drilled holes in the base plate to ensure even load distribution and maximum security.
Verify the internal dimensions of your newel post; ensure no internal debris or obstructions are blocking the path.
Check that the base plate bolts are fully tightened and that the substructure below the decking is not compromised or rotting.
To install, slide the support into the hollow space of the newel post until the base plate sits flush against the bottom of the post. Use appropriate heavy-duty fixings to secure the base plate to your decking substructure. Ensure the post is level in both axes before tightening the bolts fully. For maintenance, periodically check that the fixings are tight, especially after the first winter season, as natural timber or composite materials may settle. Always ensure that the substrate is structural; bolting into thin decking boards alone is insufficient for safety requirements.
