Who should choose a light duty post
If you are building a backyard fence, a privacy screen or an ornamental enclosure rather than carrying a heavy gate, a thinner walled post saves weight without leaving the structure short of support. The 3.15 in. light duty post is that option: aluminum with a .080 in. wall and a clean black finish that ties a fence line together.

Built for outdoor conditions
Aluminum does not rot, warp or rust, so the post holds up in sun, rain, humidity and salty coastal air. Upkeep is limited to the occasional wash. At 11 ft it also gives you room to suit different fence heights and setting depths.
Setting the posts
- Mark each post position along the line.
- Dig holes to the depth your project and local guidelines call for.
- Stand the post in the hole, plumb and align it, then pour concrete and let it cure fully.
- Fix your panels, slats or brackets, and sight down the line to correct alignment.
- Finish the open top with a compatible 3.15 in. aluminum cap.

Is it right for a heavy gate?
It is a light duty post. For heavy loads, look at the HD post range.
