Azek Monterey Post Cap by Nantucket
What It Is
The Azek Monterey Post Cap by Nantucket is a slip-over post cap made from Azek-type PVC composite material. It’s designed to sit on top of a square post to protect it from weather damage and give it a finished architectural look. The Monterey style features a slight pyramid peak with a deep bottom molding that adds visual depth and style.
Material & Durability
- Azek-Style Composite: Made from a PVC/solid polymer material that looks, feels, and machines like wood but won’t rot, split, twist, or warp over time.
- Weather-Resistant: Impervious to moisture and insects — ideal for outdoor use in climates with humidity, rain, or sun exposure.
- Paintable Surface: The material accepts paint easily, so you can match the cap to your deck, railing, trim, or fencing color scheme.
- Low Maintenance: Once painted prior to installation, the cap becomes essentially maintenance-free — no staining or sealing like traditional wood.
Tip: Azek products must be painted before installation to prevent discoloration and to maintain the warranty.
Style & Fit
- Monterey Profile: The slight pyramid top with a deep molding base gives a refined architectural look — more decorative than a simple flat cap but still clean and classic.
- Sizes Made to Order: Nantucket caps are typically manufactured slightly larger than the listed size so they fit snugly over your post. Be sure to measure the actual post dimensions before ordering.
