The Superior Outdoor Products 4" Vinyl Queen Post Cap gives your deck, porch, stair, or fence posts a more elegant, finished look with its distinctive finial-style profile. Designed specifically for 4" x 4" vinyl post sleeves and available in White or Almond, the Queen cap sits taller and more ornate than a standard ball or flat cap, making it ideal for posts you want to highlight at entries, corners, or stair runs. Made from durable, low-maintenance vinyl, it’s an easy way to upgrade the appearance of your outdoor railing or fence system without changing your underlying layout.

Installation
Verify that your vinyl post sleeve measures approximately 4" square on the outside before ordering the Queen cap. Once posts are installed plumb, cut to a consistent height, and any post trim is in place, press-fit or install the cap on top of the post sleeve per Superior’s instructions. Keeping post heights uniform along each run helps all Queen caps line up evenly and gives the project a professional, finished look.

Comparison
| Option | Key Strengths | Best Fit |
| Superior 4" Queen Cap (this product) | Tall, ornate finial-style profile; stronger decorative presence than ball or flat caps. | Gate, stair, corner, and entry posts where you want a standout decorative accent. |
| Superior Ball Cap | Rounded, traditional ball-shaped accent with a softer, classic look. | Decorative posts where you want a traditional but slightly less tall and ornate profile. |
| Superior New England Cap | Stepped, traditional profile that feels architectural but more understated. | Projects wanting a classic “finished” post-top detail across many or all posts. |
| Superior Flat Cap | Clean, low-profile top that keeps focus on the railing lines instead of the cap. | Long runs of posts or modern designs where subtlety is preferred. |
