Explore the Strength and Versatility of This RDI Structural Post
The RDI Structural Post is a durable, cost-effective solution designed for homeowners looking to wrap their posts with sleeves while maintaining strength and stability. These steel deck posts are available in two mounting options: flush mount, which attaches directly to the top of the deck, and fascia mount, which secures to the side, both ideal for surface-mount deck posts.
Each 4x4 railing post features a hot-dipped galvanized steel core, engineered for long-term structural integrity. Surrounding the steel core are multiple vinyl excursion centers that enhance the stability and load-bearing capacity of the post by effectively transferring the railing’s weight to the structure below the deck surface.
Whether you're mounting to the deck frame or using a surface-mount installation, these posts offer reliable support. Available in 36” and 42” lengths, they give homeowners the flexibility to tailor their setup to meet both safety standards and aesthetic preferences.
