Concrete In Fencing Post Shoe - Bolt Secure - Hot Dipped Galvanised

Concrete-In Post Shoe (Bolt Secure, Hot-Dipped Galvanised) provides a robust method of fixing timber posts by casting the steel shoe directly into a fresh concrete footing. Opposing clamping bolts lock the post rigidly in place above ground level to help reduce end-grain rot, while the deep embed stem ensures a strong, permanent hold. The hot-dipped galvanised (HDG) zinc finish delivers long-term corrosion protection for outdoor installations.. Key Features & Benefits. Concrete-In Strength: Long stem embeds into fresh concrete for a rigid, permanent fixing.. Bolt-Secure Clamping: Opposed through-bolts grip the post for a twist-resistant hold.. Hot-Dipped Galvanised: Thick zinc coating provides durable corrosion resistance.. Above-Ground Protection: Raises timber clear of standing water to help reduce rot risk.. Clean, Tidy Install: Ideal where a bolt-down base isn’t suitable or digging sockets is impractical.. Available Sizes. To Suit Post Size (mm). To Suit Post Size (inch). 50 × 50. 2 × 2. 75 × 75. 3 × 3. 100 × 100. 4 × 4. 150 × 150. 6 × 6. Product & Technical Details. Type: Concrete-in post shoe (bolt-secure clamp). Material: Heavy-gauge steel. Finish: Hot-dipped galvanised (HDG). Fixing Method: Cast the stem into fresh concrete; clamp post with opposed bolts. Applications: Fencing, pergolas, carports, handrails, decking balustrades. Instructions for Use. Excavate the footing to the required size and depth, ensuring firm sides and base.. Pour concrete and insert the shoe stem to the specified depth; align the cup to line and level.. Allow the concrete to set sufficiently. Insert the post, plumb and square it, then tighten the clamping bolts evenly.. Re-check alignment after initial settling; re-tighten fasteners during routine maintenance.. Limitations & Precautions. Select shoe size and footing dimensions to suit design loads; seek structural guidance for high uplift or lateral forces.. In aggressive/coastal environments, use corrosion-appropriate fixings and inspect more frequently.. Cut post ends square and treat end grain with a suitable preservative before clamping.. A strong, hot-dipped galvanised concrete-in solution that secures posts above ground for longer life—rigid bolt clamping, durable corrosion protection and a neat, long-lasting install for fencing and outdoor frames.
