4″x 4″ Post Base, 2Pcs Stainless Steel Adjustable Post Anchor Bracket (Internal 3.5 x 3.5), Adjustable Post Base for Pavilion Deck Porch Handrail Railing Support Decorative Anchor Plate

Great value and quality
This the deck was being built around an above-ground pool, I wanted to use stainless steel hardware whenever possible. These were perfect for the posts around the pool perimeter and the provided wedge bolts held great in the concrete-filled cinderblock.Note:The provided wedge bolts will work but since they are stainless and therefore softer than standard steel bolts, here are a few tips to save you the headaches other reviewers have mentioned:1) Use a 7/16” (11 mm) masonry bit2) Drill the hole approximately 1.5x deeper than the length of the bolt.3) Use compressed air (50+ psi) to blow the dust and sediment out of the holes. This is critical to your success and should not be skipped!4) BEFORE hammer time, thread multiple nuts onto the top of the wedge bolt. The idea is to add stability and protect the threads entirely – make sure that there are no threads are visible, even if that means the top nut is only partially threaded. It’s best to have a few nuts dedicated for all of the wedge bolts you intend to install and if possible, use hardened nuts (they won’t be used in the final assembly but will last longer and cost less than the provided stainless steel nuts).5) Finally, you can hammer the wedge bolts into their prepared holes. Take care and stop immediately if the bolt doesn’t stay perpendicular to the mounting surface. Some holes may need a little bit more drilling but in most cases, I just needed to blow more dust out with compressed air.6) Remove your stack of nuts (with two wrenches if needed), place the post bracket over the wedge bolts, add stainless washers and nuts, and DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

Strong, Sturdy, and Perfect for Our Screen Porch
These post base brackets are very sturdy and well-built. The stainless steel feels heavy-duty and durable, which gives me confidence that they’ll hold up over time. The adjustable design made installation straightforward, and they fit my 6″x6″ posts perfectly (internal 5.5″x5.5″).We added on a screen porch and my husband painted them black to match the house. They worked perfectly! Not only are they strong and sturdy, but they were also a great price. I highly recommend this product—if I had to do it all over again, I would buy them again in a heartbeat.

Brackets Look sharp – nice base plate.
I only used some of the bolts and fasteners they included, because I did not need so many. I wasn’t sure, actually, what all of the fasteners and bolts were intended for, so I now have a nice stash for future projects (already made use of a few actually). For anchoring to concrete, I used my own threaded rod.Overall these worked great for me. I used them to achieve a very minimal and clean looking connection to the ground for a shed I built. I particularly like the bent base plate they include which hides anchor bolt connections and lets a post or beam bear 1/2″ above the ground (I used small caissons in the backyard, just right up to grade, so this holds the posts up just a little above surrounding grade, and these posts should last a very long time as a result).The brackets look sharp. I’ve had them in place outside for over 6 months, and they are shiny as ever. Where mud caked on them, I brushed it off, and the stainless steel is as good as new. You need to use stainless steel with stainless steel, but everyone knows that… I’m a little suspicious of anyone who says they had rusting – my guess is dissimilar metals, or something else a bit off in their process.The only tricky part with these was I wasn’t quite sure how the base plate is meant to be positioned relative to the slotted openings. There are curved slots that might allow you to have some freedom to position the bracket in the right spot relative to your anchor bolts and get your post in the perfect spot, but I couldn’t quite figure it out. A couple of spot I wished I could nudge the post over more before tightening, but no luck. Still, it was fine.

Awesome
These are awesome. They’re strong and stainless. They were cut with a laser so they are pretty dimensionally accurate.One caveat, they are SLIGHTY larger than a 4×4 but, not enough to affect anything.

Made for US 8×8’s so had to trim my 8×8’s to fit.
