Customer Reviews for SimTek 5 in. x 5 in. x 8-1/2 ft. Dark/Walnut Brown Composite Fence End Post

These people are criminal. I spent a fortune on this fence. I have not had it a year and we got hurricane Irma. My area received 40 MPH winds gusting to 80. They advertise 110-120 MPH sustained winds on their site. Every post is bent. Not leaning because of the ground, since each post calls for 160 pounds of concrete. The posts are literally bent. Some were mounted on top of contcrete and it sheared the posts right off of their cheap metal brackets. If you buy this fence, it will not weather even tropical storm force winds that we received in our area. Never again! Then they put you off for a month like they are going to cover you under warranty and send you a letter telling you your out of luck. I should have known during their terrible customer service and ordering problems this was not a company worth dealing with.

You can’t buy gray anymore. I need 4 more poles and can’t order them

A little scraping on them

I'm very happy with the fence, and posts. But, it should be noted that it too 2 months to get the posts from the date of my order. They blamed the delay on the coronavirus. But several times I was given a shipping date and later learned the posts had not been shipped and they gave me a new shipping date. This went on and on until I complained to Home Depot and started a complaint ticket. They must have gotten someone's ear and got the order rolling. Once I got the posts it was fine putting them up and they seem to be quite well made.

I used the post for a project in my garden. Worked great. Wished that they made posts in a smaller size. Thanks.

I have used many sections of SimTek fencing in the last few years - doing sections around our back yard as we could afford to (it is what I thought to be a premium product and we thought the extra $$$$ were justified). The quality of their product has deteriorated greatly from when we started the project. When we started - we had no installation problems and the contractor we used at first, bragged on it - selling it to others and using ours as an example. Several of the recent posts had sections along the edges where the covering material had delaminated and split (unfortunately I didn't catch them before installing them) so I am stuck with them. The panel slide grooves on some were too narrow on a couple of posts - forcing me to trim panels to fit them. A couple of panels had spots were daylight showed through the thin material (usually on the mortar joints - also which were not seen until too late (after installation).... All the panels and posts had excessive flashing that required me to trim to make them presentable or installable. One post was less than 5"x5" forcing me top glue the cap on. One re-enforcement square tube was about 1" short - fortunately I had to cut down the last panel to fit it in the space. One post was twisted - didn't catch it until it was set. I shudder to think what my next sections to do in 2020 will be like! Too bad - I still get lots of admirers of our privacy fence. - If they only knew!

Great product, beautiful fencing. Amazing product however delivery was challenging when it is being delivered to a residence.
