Adjustable 32-inch foundation screw.
Let me tell you this, the Adjustable 32-inch foundation screw is something I myself had never seen before. I needed to build a sturdy platform for a 12x14 screenhouse and with a bit of exercise screwing theses in WOW what a difference that made as far as strength holding the weight of this screen house. I couldn't be any happier.
I strongly recommend that if your replacing or building a deck to use the Adjustable 32-inch foundation screws. You will not REGRET buying these.

Works as advertised
these are excellent for tight or hard to work in areas where it is impossible to dig with normal tools

Easy To Use - Canadian Product
Handy little things and beats digging a post hole. The support strength is amazing in the vertical direction, but horizontally there's a bit of a wobble so wouldn't use these for fence posts.

Hello Sir,
The Adjustable Pylex 32" and Adjustable Pylex 50" aren't to be used for fencing, they are design to work in load bearing and not avoid lateral movement. Anything else, please let us know.

Hello Sir,
The Adjustable Pylex 32" is meant to support an Deck, it is not a anchor by itself.
However wo do have an device that makes them uplift resistance.
Anything else, please let us know.

Better than digging holes!
Works fine if you have room to turn a 2x4 approximately 6 feet long and no big rocks. I pegged in a 3 foot rebar to keep it straight. Sometimes, it stops screwing and needs a tap with a sledge hammer to get it going again.

Handy and inexpensive
They are a great product and easy to install. A tad on the light side but if you have nice clean ground, they will work great.

Worked great
Worked as intended, in conjunction with the screw extension, to add supports under my existing solarium where a 4 feet screw would have required lots of digging.

Good in theory but far from fool proof.
This product works well in theory, it'll be situational depending how many rocks you encounter on your way down.
The built in auger should do fine provided that the stones you hit are less than 6 inches. I unfortunately had to deal with many stones larger than 6 inches and the auger would not dislodge them no matter how much elbow grease or leverage with a 2x4 I provided. Using a 2x4 as leverage as the instructions suggests bent the post anchor so that it wouldn't sit flush with the post. Had to resort to straightening it back out using a vice..
I had to resort to digging down and removing the stones; this kind of defeats the purpose of this product since you're losing out anchoring ability of the soil. Honestly, it probably would have been a lot easier and cost effective to pour concrete or just use Sika postfix.

Hello Sir,
Unfortunately what's in the ground can be an problem for the piles installation, as we say : we can't control what's in the ground.
Anything else, please let us know.

Adjustable 32 inch foundation screw
Unable to get more than 6 inches in ground. Top twisted. Do not think this would work in anything but sand. Returned all but the 2 that broke!

Hello Sir,
The top "u" saddle can be reformed in "U" shaped if they twisted, these are 1/4" steel folded, which mean if you apply strong tension on them it can bend a little, however this is steel and can be untwist to his initial position. On the other we do recommand to use an 1/2" rebar to piles location to know what's in the ground before screwing them in the ground.
Anything else, please let us know.
