I don't know. I got them for my parents who used them on 4 x 4 presure treated wood posts and they fit fine. Good luck

I got this for my father but off the top of my husbands head, he doesn't think it would work a 4" post. I will find out what my father thine though!

Hi Carol. If you receive ones exactly the same size as the ones I received - no, they will not fit. My posts are exactly 5" x 5" and they fit perfectly. There appears to be different sizes from different vendors all claiming to fit. The first batch I purchased from another vendor claimed to fit 5 x 5 and didn't. Luckily they were returned no questions asked.

We had to make a small adjustment to fit the post, but looks good. Didn't fit over vinyl post, so adding a block of wood for height gave us something to attach to.

I don't believe so without using some sort of adaptor. You would probably need to use a pole mounting flange on top of the 4x4 post.

The manufacturer recommends a minimum of 5'' timber posts. Will a 4x4 post work too? We are having trouble finding a 5x5 post and feel 6x6 will be way too large.

For a 2" bed post, they would work. These risers are round. A 3" post would not fit.

Buy wood shims. Thats what i did and it made it nice and tight fit. A 4x4 post will not be a tight fit on its own. Add some shims and it'll be perfect. Mine is rock solid after i sunk it in Quikcrete

I measured the inside diameter of the light and it measures 5 in. x 5 in.. You may want to measure your vinyl post to make sure their measure is 5 x 5. Hope this helps. DW

They have to be screwed in. I would inquire about proper screws for vinyl. Good luck!

No, they are made for wood posts that are 3 1/2 by 3 1/2, unless you have rough sawn posts that are 4 by 4.

Good news, they're both wrong! The bands will not stretch to 4" without breaking but they will fit a 2 3/4" rolling pin perfectly so you're good to go.

I installed on 4" vinyl posts. The lights come with an interchangeable base to fit different sizes of posts.

If the post vinyl dimension is same as the wooden 4x4 it will fit. Its a perfect fit for 4x4 wooden fence post.

Hi Linda, I think it will. The piece that fits around the post is adjustable, so you would be able to get it to fit around whatever size base you have, unless its really narrower and if so, you may be able to use some padding around it. There is no drilling into the railing, so that won't be a problem. Good luck!
