Wood Finials have been used for hundreds of years to enhance fine homes and businesses. When detail and quality matter, Nantucket Finials offer the best in outdoor wood finial selection. Finials are constructed of quality laminated clear unfinished Western Red Cedar. Top your fence post or deck post with a finial to add many years of beauty and elegance to your backyard garden or fence entrance. Finials fasten directly to the top of a post cap with an included 2-sided lag screw or you can install with a marine grade adhesive. You can order Nantucket Slip Over or Non-Slip Over Post Caps and request to have them pre-drilled to accept the finial screw at no additional charge. Naturally, only the flat top post caps can be used with finials. It is highly recommended to seal the finials, as well as the post caps, with a high grade sealer, stain, or paint. All sides of the finials should be sealed including the base to prevent cracking when exposed the the harsh outdoor elements.

Preparation:
All Nantucket Post Cap Finials are constructed of quality laminated clear Redwood and Western Red Cedar. They should be sealed BEFORE installation with an oil base primer, paint, stain or preservative to ensure long life. These should be applied to all surfaces INCLUDING the base.
Installation:
Nantucket Finials are pre-drilled and shipped with lag screws for easy installation after sealing. The screws should be inserted first into the base of the finial using a pair of pliers around the smooth section (not the threads). Then thread the finial with mounted lag screws into the post. Pre-drilling the top of the post is optional and may aid in the installation. Exterior caulking material can be applied to the base to ensure a tight fit if desired.
Here is a great picture from a customer of ours in Peachtree City, GA. They used the NPC-GP612 Great Point Post Cap in Redwood, topped with the NPC-NFE6C Eel Point Finial in Cedar. This project looks great, here is some feedback from our customer:
"Hello George-
We needed some light at the end of our walkway. We preferred to side mount the lamp so as to be able to match the fixtures that we already had on the house. To achieve this we needed to build the post ourselves. In doing so we were now able to side mount the fixture, add a remote sensor, and add an electrical outlet for Christmas lights and power tools. We are so please with our project ! We searched the internet to find just the right topper for our post and fell in love with yours. Thank you so much. PS the top fit perfectly!!"
Thank you so much Suzanne! I am glad that we could help you complete this beautiful project - you guys should be proud - it looks wonderful!
