Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your concrete surface is flat and level. Use an 102mm diameter round post that has been pressure-treated for exterior use. After positioning the base, use a spirit level to ensure the vertical axis is plumb before tightening the anchor bolts. For maintenance, periodically check that the bolt connections remain tight, as timber can shrink slightly during dry weather. While the galvanized coating is durable, you can clean it periodically with a mild detergent and water to remove debris. If you choose to paint the base, use a primer suitable for galvanized metal to ensure proper adhesion.
