Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these post anchors for their heavy-duty construction, rock-solid stability, and ability to prevent rot by elevating posts off concrete. The ZMAX coating resists corrosion effectively, and the pre-drilled holes with split-side design allow easy alignment during installation. Most reviewers highlight durability and code compliance as key strengths, calling them the best choice for decks and outdoor structures. A few mention needing additional washers or note alignment requires patience, but these minor concerns barely diminish the strong consensus that performance justifies the investment for critical structural applications.

Great for support posts
Would RecommendThese are great for the bottom of posts. They keep the post about an inch off the ground and they’re sturdy. I wish I could use these for fence posts as well.

Would RecommendI have used this product since they were first out out on the market for all pier footing applications. Simpson Strong-Tie products are always preferred by me and my crews as there is never a question of their durability and quality. If you want a strong connection that meets code anywhere in the country, these are your best bet.
