Mounting a vinyl fence or vinyl fence post or to a flat surface such as concrete or wood decks has never been easier and more secure than with our Vinyl Post Support Kits and parts designed for Bufftech Fence Sections, Evernew Vinyl Railing Sections, Simtek Fence Sections, and Superior Plastics Vinyl Railing Sections.
Fence and Railing stiffeners are available to strengthen vinyl and PVC posts. Typically available in extruded aluminum, precision fit, and tough, vinyl fence post stiffeners are an alternatively to filling posts with concrete and using rebar with rebar separator clips. Some vinyl fence posts on a job, often terminal posts, i.e. end, corner, and gate, but not line/ intermediate posts, should be filled with cement to bottom of top rail. Two pieces of rebar are inserted for reinforcement and rebar clips keep rebar separated while filling. It's inexpensive, but messy and time consuming. Use an aluminum fence posts stiffener as an alternative, especially in cold climates where filling the posts with concrete can actually cause them to split with freezing temperatures. Post stiffeners also make mounting gate hardware much easier.
