There are numerous comments that a 4 x 4 post will not fit into this without a sledge hammer ( and the wood likely weakening the joint / squared corners when doing so ). Will I need to sand or trim each 4 x 4 post to fit into this product ( assuming they are off the rack 4 x 4 posts from Home Depot ) ? Also, it appears there is no standoff at the bottom, thus the wood will soak up water and eventually weaken or rot. Will a Simpson Strong-Tie 4 in. x 4 in. Composite Plastic Standoff ( Model # CPS4 Internet #100375102 Store SKU #825326 ) - fit into this product ?
Asked by: Homer
An update, the use of a hand belt sander, and about a minute'ish on each side the higth of the E-Z Base, and it only takes about 6 or 8 waks with the sledge hammer and its on tight without your arm getting tired. Just sand it a little more if you dont want to use the hammer at all. Have fun all

I'd like to use this to secure fence posts on the edge of an existing concrete slab. Is there a recommendation for how far from the edge of the concrete slab to use this in order to avoid splitting/cracking the slab? I'd like it to be as close to the edge as possible.
Asked by: Allan
Drill your holes and use resin anchors to set threaded rods in them (1/2" stainless steel?). Leave to set (very quick) and then tighten the assembly. There will be no expansion forces to crack the concrete. I used this method some 15 years ago to fasten wall plates to the foundations of my house that I was building and it is still standing.

Can these be used to attach deck posts to wood deck?

Can these be used to attach deck posts to wood deck?
Asked by: Felicialou
NEVER Post bases do not provide adequate resistance to prevent rotation about the base and therefore are not recommended for non-top-supported installations such as fences or unbraced carports Warning: The E-Z Base and E-Z Spike products should not be used for solid fences in excess of 4' in height or that are unprotected from wind forces. These products are not rated for uplift loads, and should not be used with posts for overhead structures or any other structure that requires resistance to wind uplift loads. Notwithstanding the terms of the Limited Warranty, Simpson Strong-Tie does not guarantee, represent or warrant that this product will prevent or reduce damage caused by corrosion, or any seismic, wind, atmospheric, or other load-producing event.
