Description:
Notice - This connector is designed for Rough Cut lumber NOT nominal lumber (most common).
Outdoor Accents post bases secure the post or column to concrete and are perfect for outdoor projects such as pergolas, patio covers and other top-supported structures. These post bases feature decorative accents and provide ZMAX® galvanization with black powder coat for extra corrosion resistance. APB models include a 1" standoff from the concrete to help avoid post-end rot caused by moisture. Optional decorative side plates are available to give the look of a four-sided post base.
Take the guesswork out of what fasteners you need with our APB44R kit that has the fasteners included to complete your project!
