    Q:Can these be installed on sloped concrete driveway?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hello Avila and thanks for reaching out. Yes, our HOFT Posts can be installed on a sloped concrete driveway, and to keep all boards levelled when the surface on which you anchor is not, you need to level the boards using the rail block. The rail block is the first part that you slide in our post system. It can be secured to any desired height and allows you to create a slight slope to compensate. If you would need to see any pictures for a better understanding, please contact us directly at info@hoftsolutions.com. Thank you once again Avila and please have a wonderful summer. HOFT Team.
