A new fence is a large investment for a family, so you should consider the full cost of installing different types of fence posts. The classic wood post is the most economical but it begins weathering / diminishing performance. If you are planning on using a steel post, be sure to factor in the bracket clamps and post caps into the cost. When you include these parts it can cause a typical steel post to be more expensive than a PostMaster post. PostMaster is designed for more than just presenting a seamless fence, it is an investment in peace of mind. The PostMaster is designed to withstand up to 73 mph winds, and will not shrink, warp or rot like wood posts. Postmaster Corner Clips are used for corners in the Postmaster system.
