Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin installation, ensure your wooden posts are milled to exactly 3.5 x 3.5 inches. Using standard 4x4 construction lumber that has not been surfaced to these dimensions may result in a loose fit. Use the provided stainless steel expansion screws for concrete surfaces, ensuring the area is level before marking your anchor points. Periodically inspect the brackets for debris buildup in the drainage holes to ensure proper water flow. If the powder coating is scratched during assembly, a quick touch-up with outdoor-rated black spray paint will maintain the integrity of the corrosion resistance.
