" I wanted to meet Todd skulls -- dot. Or you I community and estimate if so tell us about the fencing that you've got here this -- from our perfection fence right basically we've tried it. -- create a look that was typical in wood. But to give on maintenance free approach by using vinyl. So this is also but it's a solid extruded vinyl it's a monarchs who confirmed when Blair -- we're about nicks turning yellow or multiple colors. It is hollow. Com and the rails penetrate right into the posts. And there are no mechanical fasteners used in it whatsoever I do notice there's some wood down the bottom of this post that's just a special block so that it doesn't sink over time. No apology from the ground would vibrate itself down oh sure so let's just a block at the end exactly gives it a solid footing. Now did you say there are no fasteners. No mechanical fasteners. How does that work are going to do without mechanical fascinating -- the rails are retained into the post using a crimp. So which is. Cut right into the vinyl so once this has locked into the post it can't come back out and come back out exactly and then the detailing that's applied to it I mean you've got. Traditional looking cap absolutely I mean basically we took fit the traditional post caps we would normally use made a mold. And make them in vinyl even something like me the ball finial that's on windows and edit list that very traditional New England detail with the dentil moldings fabulous than nice things about this -- really cut fluting details into it so there's absolutely no maintenance maintenance required here. -- maybe an occasional car Washington. That's about it but no paint job how does it compare cost twice beat it runs in the middle it's less than a pre stained wood France but it's. More expensive than a -- natural. So terrific right in the middle thank you very much you're welcome pleasure."
