Would RecommendA extremely useful fence post base from Simpson , powder coated on a glossy black just place it and drill the holes don’t forget to use the right anchors , it definitely make it easier
Real time saving brackets.
Would RecommendIn the beginning I was a little nervous because of how lightweight and thin this was but once it was anchored down tight it held the 4x4 in place and best of all it was thin enough to take the sleeve.
Strong winds and it held

Tight fit.
Would RecommendThese work great, just be careful when using close to the edge of a concrete slab. Being so tight, I recommend pounding them onto the post before mounting to the concrete. Install the four concrete anchors first then plumb post and screw in the lag bolts to the 4x4 post last. If the concrete slab is not level use treated wood to make shims.
