A BETTER LOOKING, EASY TO INSTALL, WOOD POST ANCHOR
With the Titan Post Anchor, you can enjoy the beauty of wood posts without big, unsightly, ugly, anchoring brackets on more surfaces than ever before.
No notching decking
No complicated carpentry, framing or hardware
Posts are higher and drier for longer life
HOW IT WORKS
DRILL
Use an off the shelf 1-1/4" dia. by 2" deep hole saw to cut a pilot cut for the tube.
Use a 1-3/4" dia. hole saw for 6x6 and 8x8 post anchors.
DRIVE
Use a 3 lb mini sledge to drive tube into post beyond the depth of hole saw cut.
FASTEN
Pre-drill holes and drive lag screws into the post.
PRODUCT INSTALLATION GUIDES
WHY IT WORKS
A sharp-edged, lightweight, rigid tube cuts deep into the core of the wood post and diverts enough load away from the screws to increase the overall load resistance. It is now possible for a surface-mounted anchor to be used for residential code-compliant wood railings.
A truly innovative and effective solution.
INSTALL ON WOOD
To properly secure the post anchor to a wood surface, ensure that there is wood blocking like a 2x6 or 2x8 below the deck boards and between the joist.
Pre-drill the screw holes if they are too close to the edge of a board to prevent splitting.
COMPOSITE, SYNTHETIC OR HARDWOOD
The same principle applies to composite and synthetic deck boards. It's a good idea to pre-drill the screw holes so the screws can drive in easier without snapping off the heads. The composite and synthetic material can be very dense and sometimes similar to hardwoods.
AND EVEN CONCRETE OR MASONRY
Set one screw to secure the anchor while pre-drilling the other holes. Drill 1/2" deeper than the length of the screw.
Once the holes are drilled, remove the template anchor and position the post and anchor over the holes for attachment.
One concrete screw per corner is enough to keep the post and anchor secure given the pull-out resistance of each screw.
