What happens here

Carefully insert either a vinyl or wood fence post into the prepared corner hole. For any posts that will support a gate, additional reinforcement is crucial. Insert a metal U-channel post reinforcement into the hollow core of the fence post. This reinforcement provides extra rigidity and prevents the gate post from sagging over time due to the weight and repeated opening/closing of the gate. This ensures the gate remains level and the latch functions correctly.

Goal: Securely install corner posts, reinforcing any that will hold a gate.

  • Metal U-Channel Post Reinforcement — Adding structural integrity to gate posts to prevent sagging
  • Vinyl Fence Post — Main vertical support of the fence
