Concrete In Fencing Post Shoe - Bolt Secure - Hot Dipped Galvanised (Pack of 10)

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

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

1. Excavate the footing to the required size and depth, ensuring firm sides and base.
2. Pour concrete and insert the shoe stem to the specified depth; align the cup to line and level.
3. Allow the concrete to set sufficiently. Insert the post, plumb and square it, then tighten the clamping bolts evenly.
4. 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.
