Sizes vary on the measurement of your post. They can range from 3.5 inches to 6 inches.
Get a tape measure and measure both sides of the post. It is a square post, so both sides must have the same measurement (e.g., 6 in x 6 in).
After measuring the post, check the table below for the corresponding size of wood caps.
Post Size (inches) | Opening Size (inches) |
---|---|
3-1/2 in | 3-9/16 in to 3-5/8 in |
4 in | 4-1/16 in to 4-1/8 in |
4-1/2 in | 4-9/16 in to 4-5/8 in |
5 in | 5-1/16 in to 5-1/8 in |
