A post support fitting for installing timber posts and timber framework. The timber sits on the Post Support out of ground contact, which prevents rotting due to moisture from the ground. The height/level of the square support plate can easily be adjusted which is useful when building structures on uneven ground. Suitable for structurally supported timber posts and framework that need to last a long time e.g. for a basic timber porch or decking framework. Not recommended for free standing posts e.g. fence posts.

Installation: drill a 22mm diameter hole in the end of the timber post for the threaded bar to fit into, the depth of hole will vary depending on how much elevation is required. The post should sit firmly over the threaded bar down to the square support plate. The two nuts are tightened against each other to lock the support plate in the required position. The bottom of the post support is designed to be bolted down to a concrete base, we recommend using M10 Thunder Bolts.
