Installation

Installing this aluminum cap is quick and hassle-free. Simply align the cap with the top of your 4″ square aluminum post and press down until it fits snugly. For most projects, no tools are needed.

This prevents shifting over time and ensures maximum durability.

Tips for best installation:

• Always clean the top of the post before attaching the cap.

• Test-fit the cap before applying adhesive.

• For large-scale projects, consider a rubber mallet for gentle tapping into place.

• Wipe away any excess adhesive immediately to maintain a clean look.
