Product Description
Cambridge 6" × 6" Aluminum Solar Post Cap — Seeded Glass, Low-Profile
- Premium build — Heavy-duty cast aluminum with a durable powder-coat finish for long outdoor life.
- Seeded glass lens — Two high-output surface-mount LEDs project a rich, ambient glow through real glass.
- Multi-fit base — Includes adapters to fit actual 6" × 6", 5.5" × 5.5", or 5" × 5" posts.

- Low-profile silhouette — Clean lines complement contemporary railings and feature columns.
Cambridge is the go-to choice when you want a premium 6"-class cap that looks as good by day as it does after dark. The cast aluminum body resists weather and wear, while seeded glass elevates the night effect with a soft, high-end glow from paired surface-mount LEDs. With adapters for 6", 5.5", and 5" posts in the box, it’s simple to keep a uniform look even when your project blends vinyl, wood, and aluminum sections. The solar-charged battery takes care of nighttime operation automatically—no transformers or trenching needed.
Plan your layout around key wayfinding spots — entries, corners, and stair landings — then fill in between for continuous lines of light if desired. To match 4" posts on adjacent runs, carry the same aluminum theme with the Imperial Aluminum Solar Cap. If your design includes classic white vinyl sections, mix in White PVC Pyramid Solar Caps for budget-friendly accent points without straying from a clean, traditional look.
