About This Product

Give your fence the protection it deserves with 4 in. X 4 in. Slip over miterless wood post caps. Fitting atop 4x4 fence posts measuring 3-3/4 in. To 3-7/8 in., the stylish Mahogany base prolongs the life of any fence post by guarding against rain and the elements. Topped with a hard wood pyramid shape, the one piece joint less design features a traditional style trim and no staples or glue. The advantage of miterless post caps, versus others with joints at the corners, is evident in the prolonged life of your deck and fence posts. Less water gets underneath the cap and into the top of your post making our miterless products a necessity for any deck or fence. The one-piece cap is ready for weather treating to maximize protection, or controlled exposure for rustic appeal. Most effective when mounted with glue, the 4x4 wooden post cap installs easily and adds style to your yard while helping your fence last a lifetime.

Highlights

  • Mahogany hard wood base withstands extreme weather better than pressure treated pine or cedar
  • Natural wood grain, Mahogany/cedar color
  • Can be left natural, stained, or painted
  • Routed bottom is constructed without miter joints which means never splitting apart at the corners
  • Fits 4 x 4 in. posts measuring 3-3/4 in. to 3-7/8 in. in actual size
  • Post caps, whether hard wood or metal, will provide a lifetime of protection from weathering and deterioration
  • Post caps slip over the top of the post for easy installation
  • Mounting with liquid nail recommended

Q:My post is 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. Will these fit right?
by|Oct 1, 2019

Answer This Question

A:  It will fit, but you will have to be careful to center the cap over the top of the post because there is a large gap between the post the the cutout in the cap. I bought the same cap but with the 3 1/2 x 3 5/8 inches cutout. This cap is a closer fit with a 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches post, which makes it easier to have it look centered when you install it. I like the cap, but if you don't treat it (paint, stain, etc) it will weather and not look so nice.

    A:  I put them on standard 4x4 pressure treated posts (3-1/2 x 3-1/2) and they work fine. They’ve been on them for roughly 2-1/2 years now.

      Q:What is the height of the cap once installed on a post (total height minus post recess)?
      by|Mar 26, 2019

      Answer This Question

      A:  Installed cap is 1.75 inches above top of post. Strong mount with heavy Duty Liquid Nails.

      by|Mar 28, 2019

        A:  I bought the 3 1/2 x 3 5/8 miter less pyramid cap. ASSUMING that the only difference between the two is the width of the cutout, the total height of my cap is 1 9/16 inch and the depth of the cutout is 1/2 (or 8/16) inch. Therefore, when the cap is installed on the post the distance from the top of the post to the top of the cap is 1 9/16 inch minus 8/16 inch or 1 1/16 inch. If the cap is glued to the post the thickness of the glue will add a little to the 1 1/16 inch.

          Way too large for a 4x4 post top
          The cut-out on the bottom is 3-7/8" x 3-7/8". It's almost 1/4" of space on each side! Looks like a mistake when installed. And it would be hard to secure it with a few finish nails. You have no choice but to use glue. Too bad because this is otherwise a very decent product.

            Really Great Caps
            I have a large deck made of Ipe and have been agonizing over how to cap my posts. Thought I wanted copper, but when I saw these I decided to give them a try. Special ordered 24, hoping I'd find them acceptable, but knowing I could send them back to HD if not satisfied. Well, I'm not just satisfied. I love these caps. They are meticulously manufactured in one piece - no joints, and surprisingly well finish-sanded out of the box. Note that the pictures here at HD somehow misled me about the overall shape/profile. I thought they were going to be wavy/curvy, not angular, which I wasn't too thrilled about, but it seemed the best option. Lo and behold, when I opened the box they are exactly the profile I would have purchased if it had been available. Now when I look back at the pictures I see how I got fooled. They are, in fact, the "traditional pyramid" shape. Having shopped at all 3 big box chain stores in my area and carefully considered every variety of post cap they offered, I will state categorically that these are the best. The only way they could possibly be any better is if they were made from Ipe!
