A wood fence is a beautiful addition to any property, but not all wood fences are built the same. One major factor that determines how long your fence will last is the type of post you use. At RUCO Fence, we’re proud to offer an upgrade that dramatically improves the durability and strength of your fence: PostMaster® steel posts.

If you’re installing a new wood fence in Huntsville, Alabama, here’s why upgrading to PostMaster posts is one of the smartest investments you can make.

What Are PostMaster Posts?

PostMaster posts are specially engineered steel posts designed to outperform traditional wooden or round metal posts. Built to resist bending, warping, and weather-related damage, they’re ideal for Alabama’s changing climate. These posts are designed to work seamlessly with standard wood fence components, giving you all the classic beauty of a wooden fence with the hidden strength of steel underneath.

At RUCO Fence, we recommend PostMaster as an optional upgrade for any wood fence installation—and many of our customers are glad they made the switch once they see the results.

Why Upgrade to PostMaster Posts?

While wood posts are often the standard in residential fencing, they’re prone to rot, cracking, and long-term decay. PostMaster posts solve these problems with a heavy-duty steel frame that supports your fence for decades, not just a few years.

Here’s what makes them worth the investment:

Superior Durability

PostMaster posts don’t rot, warp, or shrink like wood. They offer consistent strength and eliminate the need for early replacements due to water or insect damage.

Wind Resistance

Rated to withstand winds up to 73 mph, these posts help your fence stay upright and intact—even during Alabama’s toughest storms.

Easy to Conceal

One of the best features of PostMaster posts is their discreet design. The posts are hidden between fence boards, so your fence has a clean, wood-on-wood appearance from both sides.

Standard Rail Compatibility

Designed for use with common 2x4 rails, these posts simplify the building process and make it easy for contractors and DIYers alike.

Lifetime Structural Warranty

PostMaster posts come with a limited lifetime warranty, providing confidence and long-term protection for your investment.

A Cleaner Look With Stronger Performance

Thanks to their unique design, PostMaster posts let you enjoy the natural aesthetic of a wood fence without the structural drawbacks of wood posts. You’ll get a sleek, uninterrupted look—especially valuable for properties where appearance matters just as much as performance.

Whether you're planning a privacy fence or a decorative perimeter, these posts blend strength and style for a professional finish.
