Atlanta Post Caps are American Made and a Family owned company
Atlanta Post Caps is a family-owned & operated business that distributes millions of post caps worldwide from their headquarters in Decatur, Georgia. They’re the only patented post cap on the market and proudly manufactured in the United States.
Our post caps are made from a UV-resistant, high-impact ASA resin, a material commonly used on automobiles and marine vehicles. Tough, durable ASA is what makes our post caps longer lasting than traditional wood post caps* and allows them to keep their shape and color in even the harshest weather.
*According to a study by NC State Bio Resources, ASA resin offers substantial improvements over plain wood. "Qi, R., He, C., and Jin, Q. (2019). "Effect of acrylate-styrene-acrylonitrile on the aging properties of eucalyptus/PVC wood-plastic composites," BioRes. 14(4), 9159-9168."
How to Install Our Patented Post Caps
| Slide the post cap base onto your post. The bottom of your post cap base is smaller than the top of the post cap, and the two cap supports should be on top side of the base. | Secure the base to the post using the 2 pre-drilled holes on each of the cap supports. We highly suggest using anti-rust screws to ensure a lasting, no-hassle attachment. | Align the top of the post cap over the secured base. | Simply press and the cap will 'snap' firmly into place. Your post cap is now fully installed! We recommend not snapping the caps together until you are ready to install them. |

What is the difference between nominal and actual sizing?
If you purchased lumber from the hardware store marked “4 in. x 4 in. (nominal),” it likely measures closer to 3.5 in. x 3.5 in. because nominal sizing is smaller than actual sizing. Actual sizing is the exact measurement of the dimensions of the wood, so a piece of lumber marked “4 in. x 4 in. (actual)” will genuinely measure 4 in x 4 in. The Same is true for 6in. x 6in. (nominal). Which measure around 5.5"x5.5" and is more common. If you’re unsure, always measure to double check! We carry post caps in both actual and nominal sizes
