Using Fence Post Caps to Beautify Backyard Fencing

The best way to beautify backyard fencing is by using fence post caps. The two go together like apple pie and ice cream or coffee and a Sunday morning. When the fence post caps are in place, you will wonder why you did not put them on sooner.

At Fence Armor® we are all about fence post protection. Staining and sealing the fence post protects against weather damage. You can save the foot of the post from weed wacker damage with a Post Guard. Our Postsaver® Sleeves will stop rot and termite damage. Do not forget the fence post caps, though, and how they protect the posts from the top down. An extra benefit of the fence post caps is how they beautify the backyard fencing.

Included on our list of using fence posts caps to beautify backyard fencing is:

Choosing a style to match your tastes
Fence post caps are easy to install
Instant curb appeal with fence post caps
Fence post protection too

Let’s take a closer look at each point.

Choosing a style to match your tastes

The good news is that there are many styles of fence post caps from which to choose. If you have an idea of how the backyard fencing should look, then there is a fence post cap for you. Even if you have a particular style in the garden, you can match with it too.

For a long length of backyard fencing, maybe you could go with the classic Fence Armor® post cap. They top off the fence posts perfectly and will look great in a big yard.

If you are looking for a touch of style, you can add a decorative finial to the fence post caps. Choose from the Fleur de Lis design or the Ball Top Quad. Lovers of the Lone Star State can add a Texas Star Lasso to show off their loyalty. The Acorn Flag allows you to fly your colors on special days during the year.

The beautiful fence will add plenty of curb appeal when the work is finished.

Fence post caps are easy to install

There is even more good news to go with the beautiful fence post cap styles. They are very easy to install, so simple that you can do the work in just a couple of hours, or less.

The Fence Armor® fence post caps are made in America and of American steel. A powder coating protects the steel and prevents rust and staining from harsh weather.

You do not use fasteners with our fence post caps. Instead, we designed a system called the Internal Cap Claw to fix the caps to the fence posts. They are simple to fit, and once in place, the caps will not blow off during the winter storms or the high fall winds.

The fence post caps will also work on the deck, pergola, or even the mailbox post.

Instant curb appeal with fence post caps

Take a walk around your neighborhood and look at the beautiful fences. The ones that really catch your eye are the fences with fence post caps. Without the caps, the fence is a bit bare and looks like it is missing that finishing touch.

The curb appeal you get from adding the fence post caps is worth the investment. When a buyer comes to look at your home, they will notice the fence. Fence post caps beautify the backyard fencing and add value to the house.

You, too, will notice your backyard fencing and appreciate the curb appeal of the fence post caps.

Fence post protection too

Not only do fence post caps beautify the backyard fencing, but they also add fence post protection from the top down. An unprotected fence post top is open to the wind, rain, ice, and the sun.

The top of the post is full of tiny spots for the water to gather and soak into the wood. The cold weather freezes the water, and the post will crack under the pressure. Over a few winters, the damage may be beyond repair. Fence post rot can happen too and spread down the post very quickly. The hot summer sun can dry out the wood and cause plenty of damage to the fence posts.

Adding fence post caps should be part of your fence post protection planning.
