Customers who enjoy the elegance of a Victorian look, or those who simply desire a uniform look with something already existing; the decorative post is an easy and inexpensive way to add class and an artistic touch to any structure. This in no way affects the overall strength of the posts. For those customers who intend to include one of our privacy panels with their structure, be sure to discuss the logistics of attaching a privacy panel to our decorative posts with one of our expert Project Advisers. The dimension of the post is 4" x 4" with a wood insert at both the top and bottom square portions of the post, and a metal support rod through the "turned" portion.
