Messages on the porch are vinyl metal rod w / inside.Attached w / U shapedmetal@bottom.How do I presentable? I have a nice house, but the vinyl posts are attached with a metal bracket U-shaped concrete on the porch. There are bolts with nuts on one side of each post on the opposite side is the head of the bolt, and the other two sides are smooth. I would like to dress these positions out somehow, but I'm at a loss about how to proceed. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
You can cut the bottom of things with wood, stone or brick.
If using wood, you must create a box slightly larger than your messages and a bottomless hole cut in the top that fit tightly against the post. You'll need to miter cut the wood to make it fit and look right, but it would not be too difficult. You can make the box just large enough to cover the medium or you can make it as big as you think looks good.
The alternative would probably require you to hire a mason brick or stone.
I want to do something that the rest of compliments or outside your home.
Do not cut bolts or ruing the U-shaped piece as it is held positions in place, which in turn support the roof of the veranda.
Ypu can easily cut the bolts and do what you want.
