I had to purchase a wooden base and screwed it into the top rail and then I placed my solar light (wooden base fit inside the base of my solar light) on top of the wooden base. I applied some silicone to secure the solar light to the wooden base. I found the wooden base in the solar light and deck department at Home Depot or Lowes'. That is my best answer!

Sorry, can't help. They did not fit our posts so did not remove the plastic and returned them.

Yes they will fit a 4 x 4 vinyl fence post. The only thing I had to do was to drill holes in the posts to attach them. But they fit perfectly.

They don't fit flush-mounted side rails. Believe me. I bought them and had to send them back. Take a close look at the picture.

No, they are made for wood posts that are 3 1/2 by 3 1/2, unless you have rough sawn posts that are 4 by 4.

My posts are square 3" and they fit easily - close to another inch in diameter will make it tight. But might be ok.

The nominal dimensions of the 4x4 shouldn't be an issue. The important consideration is the plumb of the post. Insure that the 4x is straight and then mount your post over it butting two adjacent sides; secure with screws. I hope this helps.

I had bought them for bed posts that were 3.5" x 3.5 " they fit. But it did not work for me. They were not stable.

This is not for a 4x4 post...either square or round........its for a metal pole or a wood pole like you would use in your closet. Either square or round will work as long as the pole is under about 2 "It really keeps the nest safe. ..from everything

Yes they can go over a 4x4. Some of them may be a little tight and need a rubber hammer. They are pretty sturdy. I used 2 inch screws to attach to my deckI have as much as 10 ft between posts.

I just measured my posts and they are 1 1/4" and fit just fine. You should be OK.

It is for a 4x4 dimensional lumber post you would buy in the home improvement store, so it is smaller than 4".

Hello I just ordered these and when they came they were EACH about 1.3/4 inches wide. The exact dimensions are misleading since they indicate 14.4 x 4.2 x 0.5 inches, two pieces...so I presumed they were 4.2 inches wide EACH. NOTE 4.2 inches wide. That's what I wanted, but not what was sent. Are these an error? Please respond asap because I will need to return them.

I fabricated my posts out of 4 x 4 PT Wood. I did not need the post kit. However you do need the bracket which came with the clothes line to mount to the 4 x 4 posts. I hope this helps. If you need any more help or have questions, feel free to contact me via E-mail at cobscookbay@yahoo.com.

No, I bought 2 of these caps for my vinyl porch railing posts and had to return them. Sad, too, because they are really nice!
