Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Chesapeake Post
- Pick the Post Type: Line for straight runs, End to terminate a run, Corner for 90° turns.
- Match Your Height: Select the post length that corresponds to your panel height (allowing for proper burial/footing per local code).
- Color Continuity: Order the same TimberGrain blend as your panels and gates for a uniform look.
- Plan for Gates: Add 5"×5" aluminum stiffeners to hinge and latch posts to prevent hardware pull-out and gate sag.
- Accessories: Finish with matching 5"×5" post caps (e.g., Pyramid or New England) and external post skirts where desired.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: Yes. Line, End, and Corner posts are factory-routed to accept Chesapeake rails for fast, square installs.
Q: What sizes do I need for the Chesapeake TimberGrain fence?A: 6' fences typically use 107" posts
Q: Will these match older Bufftech Chesterfield (Victorian accent) fences?A: Chesapeake is the modern successor. Color/texture and routing match the Catalyst system; always verify fit before mixing systems.
Q: Do the posts include caps or stiffeners?A: Post caps and aluminum stiffeners are sold separately. Stiffeners are strongly recommended for gate posts.
Q: Can I use these with smooth (non-TimberGrain) Chesapeake?A: This listing is for TimberGrain finishes. Smooth posts are listed separately to ensure a perfect match.
