How to Install a Round Terminating Post & Sleeve

When No Solid Termination Structure Exists

Round Terminating Posts are a key component to ensuring a proper and secure fence installation. If you are terminating a pool fence at a point where no solid structure is available or you cannot anchor into the available structure (like a glass wall, PVC fence, window, no wall at all) and your installation surface is dirt, you will need a Round Terminating Post. Please note: If the installation surface is concrete and you have no solid structure to anchor into to terminate the fence, see our Rectangular Post for this situation.

The Round Terminating Post is designed to act as the secure structure for your fence and will hold the proper tension.

The Post can be installed permanently with concrete or you can make the post fully removable using a Round Terminating Post Sleeve.

Making Turns in Dirt/Grass

You can also use a Round Terminating Post to make a turn in dirt/grass. Due to the fence tension, if you are planning on making turns in your fence while installing in dirt/grass you must use a Round Terminating Post. If you use a regular pole to complete a turn, the tension applied to that pole will cause the pole to bend, and potentially break, leaving access to the pool.

You can also opt to install a sleeve so that the post can be fully removable.

Color Variations

Colors on your screen or brochure may not match the actual color of your product.

Due to the many variations in monitors, phones, and browsers, color samples and product examples may appear different on different screens. Computers and mobile devices are not all calibrated equally and color reproduction on the Internet is not precise. The same is true for printed items such as brochures and other sales literature. 

In addition, the colors of our products photograph differently under different lighting conditions. For example, photos taken in full sunlight will vary from photos taken on a cloudy or overcast day. Similarly, shadows from nearby objects can affect the color and transparency of our products. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Colors will vary from batch to batch.

Many of our products’ materials are not available through typical stores and vendors and therefore must be custom manufactured specifically for our use. In order to control costs and provide you with the best value possible, our raw materials are produced in large batches and can often take several months to receive. The colors of our materials can, and often do, vary slightly from batch to batch. Although we make every effort to minimize color variations, we cannot be responsible for these differences when they occur. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Color names are subjective and may not be what you think the color should be.

For example, we use the name “putty” to describe some of our products. Your idea of the color “putty” may be different than someone else’s idea of “putty”. In addition, products may have the same color name but may not be the exact same color. For example, we have different shades of “black”. Please do not order using color names as your only guide. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

If it is important that your product be an exact color or shade, it is highly recommended that you inspect the actual product prior to its installation and address any concerns with your local independent installer. Most independent installers do not offer refunds or accept returns due to color variations.
