Note:
Installation is the same for all slip over post caps, both standard and solar powered.

Preparation:
The surface of your deck post does not have to be perfectly level if you are applying a slip over post cap. The design will compensate for very small deviations.

Use an exterior-grade construction adhesive (Liquid Nails ®, available everywhere) to adhere the post cap, finial, or deck post cap to your wooden, vinyl, or metal post.

*The post does not have to be completely square as the slip over post cap will cover minor variations in the post surface. Ease of installation and preparation are big benefits in using slip over post caps.

*Apply exterior adhesive to top of the post. Place post cap over post and adjust to desired fit. Make sure that the post cap sets level on the top of the post. Stainless steel nails may be used, but are not necessary.
