What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this fence post bracket for exceptional strength, secure fit, and straightforward installation. Most highlight how firmly it holds 4x4 posts without any movement or wobble, with many describing it as delivering unmatched rigidity for decks, railings, and pergolas. The black powder-coated finish resists rust effectively. Installation is consistently called easy, with pre-drilled holes streamlining setup.

Concrete post boot
Would RecommendBlack concrete post boot. Works as expected, my only complaint is the darn sticker thats on them. No matter what i do, i cannot get the sticker off in one piece and it leaves a sticky residue. Ita not a huge deal, but then i have to rotate the boot to make sure the sticky gross side doesnt show. Wish the vendor would use a smaller sticker.

They work really good to connect wood 4x4s to concrete, just make sure you drill the holes as instructions read

Great product when building a privacy fence
Would RecommendHaving never used the Simpson EZ post brackets, I was surprised how solid they were when mounted to flat concrete using wedge anchor bolts.
