Surface mounting posts, where possible, increases the longevity of a post. The low profile look of the post anchor gives you improved appearance compared to many wrap around style brackets.
Proper installation requires the following hardware for a wood surface installation:
(8) 1/4 x 4" Flat Head Screws
(4) 3/8 x 5" Hex Head Lag Screws
Also see Instructions height restrictions and proper installation.
Optional Post Brace for maximum strength (sold separately)

No complicated carpentry, framing or hardware

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.

WHY IT WORKS
A sharp-edged,lightweight, rigid tube cuts deep into the core of the wood post and holds thepost and anchor together longer than just screws alone. This makes the connection more visually appealing. Where more strength is desired, use an optional Post Brace.
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.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT US?
D
Our 2 adult sons bought a single cedar post to go on our front porch for a Fathers Day gift. We didn't really know what to do, but your instructional videos were very helpful, and the anchor post really made it secure. It was a bit of a challenge to get it hammered in, but we feel confident it will hold through the next tornado! Also, the metal post skirts, although quite inexpensive, look very nice. We wedged painted paint sticks as spacers for a snug fit.
