Default vinyl posts

I just got back from Home Depot and I can order vinyl posts, but Im not sure which ones to get...I want the posts to use for glass storage...would anyone by any chance have a model number? I did a search and found a sku# for lowes..but that does me no good.


eta: I found them!

Home depot does carry them in some stores, I was told they can be special ordered if your Home depot does not have them in stock. they take 7-10 days to receive.

The toll free number to find out if they can be special ordered to your home depot is..1-877*279-4496
Model # 73061401S
These are 8ft/$10

I looked on their website and I don't see that they have the rails that most people are using. They have posts, but no rails.

I went with gutter down spouts because I couldn't find any rails in my area. They hold more glass per section than the rails do and were very inexpensive.

I found the vinyl fence posts posts at Lowe's. Home Depot in my area did not have them.

I found the 3-holed fence rails at Lowe's just last week. Eight feet for $10.00.
I cut them at 12".

How did you cut these? I dont have anything electrical to cut them with...I wonder if a hacksaw could get smooth cuts?

A handsaw would work better than a hacksaw

A hacksaw actually works pretty good - nice smooth edge, but a fine tooth blade on a miter saw is the bombdealio.
