I noticed that for wood decks, there are surface mount deck brackets for the 4 x 4 posts. I just resurfaced my wood deck with composite. I have been unable to find those brackets for composite deck material. Are there surface deck mount posts for composite?

Why do they need to be different? Do your new posts have different dimensions?– isherwoodMay 9, 2016 at 21:03

No, they are 4x4. I have never worked with composite material before. It seems to be more pliable than wood. I was scared that it wouldn't be as rigid.– CrackermanMay 9, 2016 at 22:41

These brackets will also work for composite material. The composite material might be harder on a cheap drill bit, but so long as you can drill a hole through the deck, you can mount a bracket to it.
