8' posts come standard, in some cases you may need a
taller post such as a 10' or 12'. When you fill out the free
quote make a note in the comments box that you would like 10' or
12' posts. We carry 8', 10' and 12' posts, you will have to
cut your posts down if you need a different length. For
example: say you need a 9' post, from 8' the next size up is 10' so
you will have to cut a 10' down to get the desired 9'.
Reasons you will have to cut your posts:
During installation you will almost definitely have to cut your
posts to height, even if you only have 8' posts more than likely
they will need to be cut. There are a couple reasons you may
have to cut your posts. One reason is that almost all slabs
have a slope to them and this slope has to be accounted for by
modifying the height of your posts. Height of the post is also
modified if you need a different length posts than we have in
standard lengths. For example: say you need a 9' post, from 8' the
next size up is 10' so you will have to cut a 10' down to get the
desired 9'. |
