Product Information

Full details

The SecureFix Direct Bolt Down Fence Post Holders are an ideal choice for homeowners and contractors looking to install 100mm timber posts on existing concrete surfaces or walls without the labor-intensive process of digging holes or pouring concrete. These supports provide a durable, rust-resistant foundation that elevates timber above the ground to prevent rot, though users should note that the necessary anchor bolts for securing the base plate to the ground are not included in the package.

FAQs

Are the fixing bolts included to mount the plate to the concrete?

No, the fixings required to mount the base plate to your concrete surface are not included and must be purchased separately based on your specific ground material.

Can I use these for 100mm posts?

Yes, these holders are specifically designed to fit 100mm square fence posts.

What are the dimensions of the base plate?

The base plate measures 173mm x 173mm, with bolt hole centres spaced at 135mm.

Does this product prevent wood rot?

Yes, by holding the post 153mm above the ground, it prevents the timber from standing in water, which significantly reduces the risk of rot and decay.

Can this be used on grass or soil?

No, these bolt-down supports must be mounted onto a solid, level surface like concrete or masonry to function safely.

How many come in a pack?

This product is supplied as a pack of 4 post holders.

Troubleshooting

The post feels loose inside the bracket

Ensure the twin bolts on the side of the bracket are fully tightened against the timber. If the post is slightly undersized, you may need a thin packer to ensure a snug fit.

The base plate is wobbling on the concrete

Check that the concrete surface is perfectly flat. If the concrete is uneven, use steel washers as shims under the base plate before tightening the anchor bolts.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • No digging or concrete mixing required
  • Protects timber posts from ground-level moisture and decay
  • Sturdy construction suitable for fences, pergolas, and decking
  • Allows for easy post replacement if timber becomes damaged
  • Fits standard 100mm square posts

Cons

  • Anchor bolts for the base plate are not included
  • Requires a solid, level concrete surface for installation
  • Not suitable for use in soft soil or loose ground

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these holders, you will need a masonry drill bit, a set of heavy-duty anchor bolts (suitable for your specific concrete depth), and a socket wrench.

  • Compatibility: These supports are precision-engineered for 100mm timber posts. Ensure your timber is cut square for the best fit.
  • Care: Periodically check the twin bolts on the side of the bracket to ensure they remain tight, especially after extreme weather cycles. If you notice the brown powder coating chipping over time, apply a weather-resistant metal paint to the area to prevent surface oxidation.
