  • Curious to learn why you're not going with the cast in place ones from your own video. Commented Jul 18, 2022 at 14:22
  • Thank you! OP was stuck on making it "1 bolt". They also make 4-bolt varieties that conform to the 4x4 footprint, though 6x6 is an option. Commented Jul 20, 2022 at 1:16
  • Keep in mind these alone are unlikely sufficient to support a railing post. IRC requires railings to sustain 200lbs of force at any point along them, which is at minimum 36" high. 200lbs at 34" of torque puts an enormous force on the fasteners affixing the post to the bracket, and can rip the post right out, if not the first attempt certainly after some wiggling first.
