ABSTRACT:
A bracket is provided that is rigid and can be attached to a solid surface. The bracket allows a vinyl fence post to be fitted over and locked in place thus avoiding the necessity of pouring concrete into the post to provide a rigid post. The bracket has a base plate with bolts or anchor bolts that connects to a solid surface, an elongated member extends up from the base plate and has a cross-section to provide a sliding fit within a fence post. An expansion mechanism is provided at the top of the longitudinal member with tapered sides extending from within the longitudinal member to a larger cross-section than within the longitudinal member, and a tensioning bolt between the expansion basket and the bracket to force the expansion basket within the longitudinal member and expand the bracket to grip a fence post positioned over the longitudinal member.
