8' posts come standard, in some cases you may need a taller post such as a 10' or 12'. When you fill out the free quote make a note in the comments box that you would like 10' or 12' posts. We carry 8', 10' and 12' posts, you will have to cut your posts down if you need a different length. For example: say you need a 9' post, from 8' the next size up is 10' so you will have to cut a 10' down to get the desired 9'.

Reasons you will have to cut your posts:
During installation you will almost definitely have to cut your posts to height, even if you only have 8' posts more than likely they will need to be cut. There are a couple reasons you may have to cut your posts. One reason is that almost all slabs have a slope to them and this slope has to be accounted for by modifying the height of your posts. Height of the post is also modified if you need a different length posts than we have in standard lengths. For example: say you need a 9' post, from 8' the next size up is 10' so you will have to cut a 10' down to get the desired 9'.
