This sturdy Pressure-Treated Timber #2 Southern Yellow Pine meets the highest grading standards for strength and appearance. Treated for protection from termites and rot, it is ideal for a variety of applications including decks, docks, ramps and other outdoor projects where lumber is exposed to the elements. Responsibly manufactured from renewable southern yellow pine, this lumber is both safe and environmentally friendly when used properly and can be painted to match any home or business exterior.Treated wood is typically still wet when it’s delivered to The Home Depot or job site. As it dries, you should expect slight changes in width and length. As lumber dries, it may split, cup and warp. This is more likely to occur to occur in lower-grade boards, where knots and uneven grains are already present. Each piece of lumber is unique and carries physical characteristics that may include the following: knots, warping, shrinkage, swelling and/or splitting.

I Purchased these 4 x 4 treated posts for adding solar lamp lights to my yard, and they went in like a breeze after digging holes with a post hole digger. After the holes were dug to my desired depth I poured in fast setting cement, added water and after 20 minutes it was ready to add my lamp on top.

I bought four of these to build a fence around a slab for a storage area. I put them two feet in the ground and fix them with ready made concrete. I painted the exposed area. I leveled them, but made the mistake of not square one with the other in line. This turned out to not be a big problem as the were lined up pretty well with the slab.. I copy the existing fencing, using 2x4s and left over fencing I had. I bought the ready to assemble door from Home Depot. I am quite happy how it all turned out.
