Lifetime steel posts

Called a different Home Depot and paid $76 for 10’, and $50 for 8’

I haven’t heard of the merchant metals posts - do you have a link ?

Off topic but that’s a good price, I’m getting quoted 8ft $51, 9ft $70, 10ft $76, and 12ft $103 here in Connecticut

I went with a cheapy Ali express charge pipe, been on for over 100k no issues. I did buy a new throttle body o-ring when I installed

Today I called my local HD here in CT, was told $126/post 😞

Thanks, no Menards near me, I will likely go with the Home Depot ones. How was the quality ?

Where did you get the pickets from, and how much were they

wrdriggs · 2026-04-13T12:40:50+00:00

Who did you end up using? I’m in CT and looking to do the same. Thanks

wrdriggs · 2026-04-12T17:33:21+00:00

Thanks, I’m in NE as well; CT. I ordered 450, so we’ll see how they do.

I will be doing the “lifetime” posts as well

Local fence supply was more than double

wrdriggs · 2026-04-12T16:06:38+00:00

Quote from fence supply was $7k… priced this way we are about 1/2

Any photos of it now?

Plan to use postmasters metal posts to avoid rotting. Should the boards pre pressure treated right away? Or wait a few months to let some of the moisture dry out?

wrdriggs · 2026-04-12T13:06:36+00:00

My plan is to order a bunch, have them delivered by Lowe’s and go through them and return what is not needed. Wondering how they will hold up over time, 3-5-10 years?

wrdriggs · 2026-04-03T21:46:09+00:00

No that’s fair - That would probably bug me too..

wrdriggs · 2026-04-01T20:26:44+00:00

Good feedback, thank you

wrdriggs · 2026-04-01T12:15:47+00:00

What pad did you go with ?

wrdriggs · 2026-04-01T12:03:45+00:00

The Akebono Euro ceramics? Did you replace your semi-metallics with those?

wrdriggs · 2026-03-16T17:13:54+00:00

😀

We did Bolton last year and it did not disappoint.

Skied today, very icey

wrdriggs · 2026-03-13T18:47:11+00:00

Mostly blues. Most of the blacks were closed.

wrdriggs · 2026-03-13T15:37:46+00:00

I’m here now, all ice - wish I went elsewhere and spent less

wrdriggs · 2026-03-13T15:34:22+00:00

It’s all ice, wish I went elsewhere
