Designed with a heavy-duty 3-inch profile and an impressive 12-foot height, this post provides exceptional rigidity, long-term stability, and premium aesthetics for modern outdoor structures. Its greatest advantage is the ability to choose a custom finish, allowing it to match any architectural theme or color scheme for a fully coordinated look.
Built from industrial-grade aluminum, the Custom Color 3″ x 12FT HD Post resists rust, corrosion, bending, and warping far better than wood or steel.

Whether you are building a new fence line or upgrading an existing property, this post ensures a long-lasting, low-maintenance foundation.
Engineered for Strength, Precision, and Durability
Aluminum is widely considered one of the best materials for structural outdoor posts because it delivers excellent strength without the downsides of heavier metals. The Custom Color 3″ x 12FT HD Post features thick aluminum walls that provide superior load-bearing support, allowing it to handle gate weight, wind pressure, and soil movement more effectively than standard posts.
The 12-foot height makes it suitable for tall installations, sloped landscapes, and engineered foundations. Whether used as a main gate hinge post, a mid-span structural post, or a fence termination point, the Custom Color 3″ x 12FT HD Post stays true, straight, and resilient under constant environmental stress.
Its custom color capability further enhances its value. Instead of forcing your project to match limited color options, you can select a finish that blends perfectly with gates, slats, fencing panels, trim colors, or architectural accents.
Designed for Easy Installation and Contractor-Grade Results
Contractors appreciate the precision construction of this heavy-duty post, which ensures a stable installation with consistent performance. The lightweight nature of aluminum makes the post easier to handle on job sites while reducing labor time.
