Description

Designed specifically to mate with our Fabricated Steel Guardrail Panels, these posts provide the structural integrity required for commercial retaining walls and residential safety barriers. Fabricated in our steel shop, every post features fully welded construction and heavy 11-gauge wall thickness for superior durability.

Pre-Threaded for Easy Installation

Forget fumbling with nuts and washers on the backside of the post. Our End, Mid, and Corner posts come pre-drilled and threaded. This allows you to simply bolt the guardrail panels directly into the post face for a clean, professional, and secure connection.

Choose Your Configuration

Select the post type that matches your layout requirements:

  1. Mid Post: Threaded holes on opposite sides (180°) to connect two panels in a straight line.
  2. Corner Post: Threaded holes on adjacent sides (90°) to create a right-angle turn.
  3. End Post: Threaded holes on one side only to start or terminate a run.
  4. Blank Post: No holes. Ideal for custom layouts where on-site welding or custom drilling is required.
