When it comes to elevating the look of your fence, few details make as much impact as the post top. While often overlooked, the right post top can transform an ordinary fence into a standout feature, adding character, architectural style, and a finished, polished look. At Ledro House, we specialise in Australian-made fence post tops designed to suit modern and traditional properties alike. Whether you're replacing old caps, upgrading your outdoor aesthetic, or finishing a brand-new fence, choosing the right style matters.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through what to consider—and introduce you to some of the unique post tops available at ledrohouse.com.
Why Post Tops Matter
Post tops serve a purpose beyond aesthetics. They help protect your fence posts by shielding them from the weather, reducing water ingress, and extending the life of your fence. But where functionality meets design is where Ledro House shines. Every product is crafted to be painted with exterior paint, ensuring long-lasting outdoor durability and seamless blending with your home’s style.
How to Choose the Right Post Top
1. Match the Style of Your Home
When browsing Ledro House post tops, consider the overall architecture of your home and fence.
For modern homes
Clean lines and geometric shapes pair beautifully with contemporary exteriors. Styles such as the:
-

-
Metro Post Top – Simple yet sophisticated, with lines that sweep upwards into a diamond form.
-
Block Aztec Post Top – A bold, linear modern option with striking tiered details.
These modern post tops help soften harsh fencing lines while maintaining a strong architectural presence.

4. Choose a Colour That Complements Your Fence
Because every Ledro House post top arrives ready to be painted, you can match it perfectly with your fence, gate, or home exterior.
