- What size post does this cap fit?
- It is made for standard fence posts, with size options listed on this page. Measure the outside dimension of your post — not the nominal lumber size — and match it to the option that fits over it.
- How do I attach it?
- A bead of exterior-grade construction adhesive inside the cap is the usual method. Seat it fully so it sheds water instead of trapping it.
- Will the mahogany keep its color outside?
- Left bare, it will weather toward silver-gray like any exterior hardwood. A coat of exterior oil or sealer, renewed as needed, keeps the warm color.
- Why choose a one-piece cap over a built-up one?
- Built-up caps rely on glue joints, and outdoor swings in moisture and temperature eventually test them. One-piece milling removes that failure point.
- Is shipping worth it on a small item like this?
- Under $500, shipping is a $75 flat rate, so caps make the most sense added to a panel, post, or rail order. Over $500 the whole order ships free anywhere in the country.
