Not Sure Which Post Size You Need?

Why Our Posts Don’t Work with Other Brands
greatfence.com heavy-duty posts are designed specifically to match the spacing and rail dimensions of our own panels and gates. Therefore, they are not compatible with other aluminum fencing brands. This ensures perfect alignment, security, and appearance.
Check Local Building Codes Before Installation
Before installing, always verify requirements with your local building authority. Code requirements — including post hole depth, spacing, and mounting methods — vary depending on your city, county, or HOA.
Here are two helpful resources:
-
Municode Library – Search your local municipality’s code of ordinances
-
Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety – Example of a city-specific code portal
💡 greatfence.com does not provide site-specific post installation advice. Always confirm code compliance with your local governing body prior to installation.
