Fitting and care
Cut the post to height, square the bottom end and weld it to a base plate. Bolt the plate down, check the post is plumb, then weld the rails to it.
Wire brush and degrease, then prime with a metal primer and paint. Outdoors, use a zinc-rich primer or have the finished railing hot-dip galvanised.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one post?
Yes, it is for one post.
Is it solid?
Yes, it is solid bar.
Can I use it outside?
Yes, once it is primed and painted or galvanised.
Why is there rust on it?
It is raw steel with no coating, so light surface rust can form in storage. It wire brushes off before priming.
