Build stronger, longer-lasting outdoor structures with this heavy duty, hot-dip galvanised bolt-down elevated post base. Engineered from robust 4mm steel with an elevated design, it securely anchors timber posts to solid substrates while keeping wood off the ground to prevent moisture wicking and rot. Ideal for pergolas, fencing, and decking projects—whether DIY or professional.


Key Features

Heavy duty 4mm steel construction for high load stability

Hot-dip galvanised coating (80–90 μm; min. 60 μm) for superior corrosion resistance

Elevated base keeps timber clear of ground moisture to reduce rot and decay

Bolt-down design for fast, secure installation on concrete, slabs, and masonry

Pre-drilled holes for easy anchoring and fixing

Helps resist wind, impact and long-term weathering

Suitable for pergolas, fences, decking posts, and garden structures


Why Choose an Elevated Post Base?

Extends post life by separating wood from the substrate

Improves water runoff around the post end

Enhances structural integrity and alignment over time
