Coverage & How Much You Need:

One post serves as the terminal for one end of a fence run. Space line posts to match your IronCraft panel width so each panel spans post to post.

Fit and Compatibility:

Designed for use with the IronCraft Hempsted bronze powder coat aluminum fence system in matching heights. Fence panels, line posts, corner posts and gates are sold separately. Confirm panel routing fits a 2 in. square post before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: What is included with this post?
A: One bronze powder coat aluminum end post, 2 in. x 2 in. x 7 ft. Fence panels, caps and hardware are sold separately unless listed.

Q: How deep should I set the post?
A: Set the 7 ft. post in the ground deep enough that the exposed height matches your fence panels; digging to roughly one-third of the exposed height is a common practice for decorative fence posts.

Q: Will this post rust?
A: Aluminum does not rust, and the bronze powder coat adds an additional protective, color-matched finish.

Q: Does this work with other IronCraft series?
A: It is made for the Hempsted series; other series may use different panel routings or post sizes, so verify compatibility before mixing.

Q: Do I need concrete?
A: Concrete or well-tamped backfill is recommended to keep terminal posts rigid, since end posts take the pull of the fence run.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Choose the end post wherever a fence run terminates at a driveway, walkway, or property corner, since it accepts a panel on only one side. Set terminal posts first and plumb them before hanging panels, and pair with Hempsted line posts and panels in the same bronze finish for a uniform look. The 7 ft. length suits standard-height Hempsted panels with in-ground setting; step down to a 6 ft. post only for shorter panel runs.

Check local building and pool-barrier codes before installation and have underground utilities located before digging post holes.
