Can these be used to mount posts for a pergola into a previously built wooden deck?
Hello, Note that E-Z Base is not a load-rated part which is intended for support of short (under 48") posts that are not acting as guards. You may want to consider our RPBZ bases instead, however design and detailing of the structure and of post connections need to be done by a qualified designer. Regards

Can you provide some direction on the brackets for mounting 6x6 posts to a wood deck. The post is flush cut on the bottom, looking for a bracket to strengthen the connection.
Hi Deckfixer, this is Tim from Simpson Strong-Tie. We suggest checking out something like our RPBZ or HBC, which can be found on pages 76-77 and 86-87 of our Canadian connector catalogue (https://www.strongtie.com/resources/literature/wood-construction-connectors-catalog-cn). To order, please contact Lowe's Canada.

Concrete post boot
Black concrete post boot. Works as expected, my only complaint is the darn sticker thats on them. No matter what i do, i cannot get the sticker off in one piece and it leaves a sticky residue. Ita not a huge deal, but then i have to rotate the boot to make sure the sticky gross side doesnt show. Wish the vendor would use a smaller sticker.

Integral component for a sound construction projec
Well constructed product that securely holds the 4x4. Absolutely no movement experienced using this product. I chose this product for construction of a mobile platform, 35” high, 36” wide and 58” long wit steps from the ground to the platform. Very sturdy, should give excellent service.

Tight!
This bracket is tight! Tight enough we had to hammer the 4x4 into it. But, being tight and bolted down, that 4x4 was pretty stable, making the rest of the project go fairly smoothly.

Great product when building a privacy fence
Having never used the Simpson EZ post brackets, I was surprised how solid they were when mounted to flat concrete using wedge anchor bolts.

Use right bolts to attach.
Seems very sturdy and keeps the 4by4 mounted to the concrete.
