Simpson Strong-Tie ABAPC Decorative Adjustable Post Bases combine the trusted performance of the ABA adjustable post base with the clean, decorative appearance of the Outdoor Accents collection. Designed for securing wood posts to existing concrete, these post bases feature ZMAX galvanized steel with a durable black powder-coat finish for corrosion resistance and a refined architectural look. With multiple post sizes available, the ABAPC series is an excellent choice for pergolas, pavilions, patio covers, fences, and other outdoor structures where both strength and appearance matter.
