FAQs

What is the primary advantage of this post support?

The primary advantage is its post-installation height adjustability, allowing you to fine-tune the level of your structure even after initial setup.

What are the dimensions of the support plate and base plate?

The support plate is 100 x 100 mm, and the base plate is 90 x 90 mm.

What type of material is it made from, and how does it handle weather?

It is made from hot-dip galvanized steel, which provides excellent protection against weather conditions and corrosion.

Can I install this on uneven ground?

No, the post support requires a level and stable surface for secure installation. You may need to prepare the ground or use a leveling compound first.

What is the adjustment range for height?

The overall adjustable range is from 50 mm to 480 mm. The fine adjustment range using the threaded rod and locking nut is typically 30-80 mm.

How is the post support secured to the ground?

It can be screwed onto a level concrete or wooden floor using screws through the Ø 11 mm holes in the base plate, or it can be anchored using bolt anchors.

What is the thread thickness of the adjustment rod?

The thread thickness is M20, with a hexagon nut size of AF 30.

Troubleshooting

Post support is wobbly after installation.

Ensure the base plate is securely fastened to a stable surface with all mounting holes utilized. Check that the locking nut on the threaded rod is tightened firmly.

Difficulty adjusting height.

Verify that the threaded rod is clean and free of debris. Ensure the locking nut is loosened sufficiently before attempting height adjustment. Avoid forcing the adjustment if resistance is met.

Rust or corrosion appearing on the surface.

This is uncommon with hot-dip galvanized steel. If minor surface rust appears, clean the area and consider applying a suitable metal protectant. Significant corrosion may indicate damage to the galvanized layer, requiring replacement.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify a level and stable surface (concrete or wood).
  2. Position the post support at the desired location.
  3. Secure the base plate using appropriate screws through the Ø 11 mm holes (on a 90 x 90 mm base plate) or use bolt anchors.
  4. Place the post onto the 100 x 100 mm support plate.
  5. Adjust the height by turning the locking nut on the M20 threaded rod. Ensure approximately 10-20 mm of thread is visible for security.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with timber posts of various dimensions that fit within or can be secured to the 100 x 100 mm support plate.
  • Suitable for mounting on level concrete slabs or robust wooden foundations.

Care:

  • Clean with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • The hot-dip galvanization provides excellent corrosion resistance. Regularly inspect for any signs of damage that might compromise the protective coating.
