The Last Fence Posts You'll Ever Install - Revolutionary PostSaver Technology Meets Factory Pre-Staining
Tired of replacing rotted fence posts every 5-7 years? Done with the nightmare of digging out failed posts surrounded by concrete? Our PostSaver-equipped pre-stained posts eliminate the #1 cause of fence failure while delivering a professional finish that's impossible to achieve in the field.
PostSaver Technology - Revolutionary Ground Contact Protection
Each post includes the patented PostSaver sleeve system that creates an impermeable barrier between your cedar post and ground moisture. This technology extends post life from 7-10 years to 20+ years by eliminating the rot zone where 90% of fence failures occur.
Six-Sided Factory Stain Penetration
Every surface receives our proprietary EXPERT stain application, including the critical end grain areas that absorb the most moisture. Unlike field-applied stain that can't reach buried portions, our factory process ensures complete protection from ground level to post top.
Kiln-Dried Structural Stability
Our cedar posts are kiln-dried to optimal moisture content (3.5" x 3.5" x 8' actual dimensions) before staining, eliminating the checking, splitting, and warping that plague green lumber. Your fence stays plumb and true for decades.
