Before you install the Patriot Post Mount you will need to gather safety glasses, fasteners appropriate for your type of decking material, a socket wrench, level, speed square and a drill.

To install, first add the adjustment screws to the post base,

Determine were you are going to mount the post, and mark four mounting holes for pre-drilling, then drill.

Secure the post with fastening screws, but don’t tighten all the way because the post still needs to be leveled.

Next, adjust the leveling screws. The Patriot Post Mount can be leveled up to 11 degrees in any direction.

Once leveled, secure the four fasteners.

Next, we’ll attach the fillers using the pre-drilled holes. To do this, next the 4×4 fillers inside the 6×6 fillers and attach using the longer screws included with the 6×6 filler kit.
