Prepare Your Fence for Winter with Polyethylene Post Caps

A well-kept fence starts with the right details. Post caps are small yet crucial components that protect your fence over the long term. They prevent water from entering the posts, protect against corrosion and give the fence a clean, professional look — especially important during the cold season.

Why Post Caps Are Essential

Open post ends are the most common cause of rust damage on metal fences. Rain, snow or dirt can enter the tube and trigger corrosion from within. Polyethylene post caps solve this: they close the tube, prevent water accumulation and also protect against UV radiation and frost.

Shapes & Variants — The Right Fit for Every Fence System

To protect every fence layout optimally, we offer post caps in different shapes, sizes and colors:

• Round post caps: ideal for round tubes — often used on railings or decorative fence elements.
• Square post caps: the most common choice for standard fence systems, with a precise, stable fit.
• Rectangular post caps: suitable for special profiles or wider posts, frequently in industrial settings.

Caps are available in several colors such as black, grey and anthracite — so you can match them perfectly to your fence.

Installation & Care — As Simple as It Gets

Installing post caps is quick and straightforward: simply push them onto the post; the lamella construction ensures a secure hold without extra tools. Polyethylene remains elastic even in frost, preventing cracks.

• Step 1: Clean the post surface and remove debris.
• Step 2: Choose the correct cap size and check for a flush fit.
• Step 3: Press the cap on with light, even pressure — done!
