Standard Galvanized Post Cap 2x4 (1-1/2" x 3-1/2") - 2 Pack

I rebuilt the staircase of my deck and needed something to act like a post cap for the 2×4 end posts. After searching all the home centers and hardware stores in my area, I found these simple beauties.When they arrived - earlier than expected - I dry fit them to the very edges of the posts; they just made it over the wood. Yea!I did not want silver so spray painted them with 2 coats of an exterior Bronze color. Once dry, I used a rubber mallet with a leather work glove between it and each topper to pound them into place. Snug fit, no adhesive needed.Images are from left side and right side view of the stairs. I'm very pleased with the look and the fit of these post caps. Highly recommend.Notes:- The edges can be a tad rough in spots. I used a rock from my yard to smooth where needed on one cap. The other was fine as received.- If your posts are slightly larger than the caps, used a wood file/sander/sand paper to trim down the wood edges a little. You just need edge clearance to attach the caps, the rubber mallet will do the rest.

It seems strong enough to last for a long time. It rained a lot for a while, but I didn't see any rust yet. Only negative aspect of this cap is a bit loose for 2×4 post. Now it just sits on top of the post, therefore I think I need to glue it to secure it.

I bought this to cap a 2x4 inch pressure treated post and it was too small. It does fit a regular non treated post.

These 2x4 caps do not fit over 2x4 ends without some significant modifications. I had to grind down all the corners of the board to make them fit and now they're too loose.

Products looks like good quality, but slightly too small and I had to trim the 2x4 end a bit and pound this on with a mallet. At least it will probably never come off now, but if it had been a bit larger, I probably would have just sealed it on with silicone or similar.

I made my own Cornhole boards and I bought these to keep the legs from soaking up water and rotting. Absolute perfect fit with a rubber mallet for a standard 2x4

Ordered these to cap a 2x4 in fence. Fits perfectly.

These are undersized for the dimensions of a two by four. Not really worth the effort getting the two by four down to a size that it would go on and be secure.
