How to Measure
To ensure a proper fit, measure your existing post or railing carefully. For the mounting stem, determine the exact inner diameter (ID) of the hollow post or the outer diameter (OD) of the solid post where the finial will attach. The finial's tenon or threaded stud should match this dimension snugly. Next, decide on the desired visible height of the scroll itself, measuring from the top of the post to the tip of the finial. Consider the overall scale of your project; a large gate requires a more substantial finial than a furniture piece. Also, account for the scroll's width or projection to ensure it does not interfere with nearby objects or become a hazard. When in doubt, bring a sample or detailed drawing to Bobco Metals in Los Angeles for assistance.
