Heavy Duty Face Mount Post Base Brackets Maximum Deck Space. Extreme Stability. Engineered for a Perfect Fit. Stop sacrificing your deck space to bulky, centered posts. Our Face Mount Post Base Brackets are engineered for homeowners and pros who want a sleek, "over-built" look without compromising on safety or usable square footage. By mounting to the side of your rim joist or ledger board, these brackets allow your fence to sit at the very edge of your deck. The Perfect Fit: Nominal & True Sizing We know that a 4x4 isn't always 3.5 inches. To ensure your project looks flawless and stays structurally sound, we offer both Nominal (standard lumberyard) and True (rough-cut or full-dimension) sizing. No more shimming or forcing a fit—just select the size that matches your actual wood dimensions. Why Choose Madison Iron and Wood Brackets? Engineered for Code Compliance: Designed with a lower profile on the sides, allowing your fence panels to sit just 3" above the surface to meet strict 4" code requirements. Extreme Stability: High front and rear supports provide maximum lateral stability where your fence needs it most. The "Over-Built" Advantage: While others use thin stamped metal, we use 1/4" American-made steel. These are industrial-grade structural supports that provide a premium, heavy-duty finished look. Two-Face Security: The additional wrap-around leg provides two surfaces of contact on your ledger board, offering extreme strength even with limited mounting surface on top. Specifications & Features Bulletproof Construction: 1/4" welded steel with a Rust-Preventative Zinc Primer and a high-quality architectural powder coat.
