Description
Build your own rugged and heavy duty PostHugger™ Pergola, Double Pergola, shop/garage/CNC table, or deck with our RiverDriveDesigns, USA made, 1/8″ thick, steel brackets! Also great for fixing/reinforcing the one you already have! These are not flimsy/bendable metal. We make them using 1/8″ thick steel – a single corner bracket weighs just over 2 pounds – – strong enough to take what you throw at it (or what you throw it at!), but not so heavy where they are hard to work with.
We use 1/8″ steel which is thicker than a Quarter and a Dime stacked on top of each other. Also unlike others who just cut and ship steel right off their table, we take the time to hand debur and wire brush both the inside and outside of every piece.
We are the original designer of the PostHugger™ brackets, which may be copied, but never equaled! 🙂 If you find a PostHugger™ knockoff, give us a chance to meet or beat their price.
This listing is for individual brackets made to adapt/connect dimensional 6 x 6 (5.5″ x 5.5″) Posts to 4 x 4 (3.5″ x 3.5″) Posts and Beams.
Our brackets can be installed using any 1/2″ wood lag screws or in instances where there will not be a collision of bolt holes, 1/2″ thru bolts. If you use lag screws, we recommend 1/2″ x at least 2″ length for 4×4 posts and at least 2.5″ length for 6×6 posts, with longer bolts adding more strength. If you choose to through-bolt in locations where possible, go at least 1/2″ x 4.5″ for 4×4 posts. BOLTS/LAG SCREWS ARE NOT INCLUDED WITH OUR BRACKETS; you can pick them up at your local hardware store when you pick up your wood. Lifestyle customer photos depict build/use variations only.
6-To-4 Outside Corner – This outside corner bracket is used where your upright post is a 6×6 and you are adding horizontal incoming 4×4 posts on top to make a corner.
2Pc 6-To-4 Straight/Upright Adapter– This bracket is used where your upright post is a 6×6 and you are adding a vertical 4×4 post on top to extend your 6×6. So it acts to reduce a 6×6 post to accept a 4×4 post. It is made up of two separate halves. One half bolts to the 6×6 and the 4×4 and the other half has feet which bolt to the 6×6 and also bolts to the 4×4. Through bolting is not possible with this bracket; instead, all holes are offset and the steel surrounds the 4×4.
6-To-4 Bent L – This bracket is used where your upright post is a 6×6 and you have one incoming horizontal 4×4 post you want to attach.
6-To-4 Flat L – This bracket is used where your upright post is a 6×6 and you have one incoming horizontal 4×4 post you want to attach.
6-To-4 Flat T – This bracket is used where your upright post is a 6×6 and you have two incoming horizontal 4×4 posts you want to attach in a straight line. 6 To 4 Bent L – This bracket is bent at a 90 degree angle with one tab sized for a 4×4 post and the other for a 6×6 post.
