PVC Porch posts – looking for a good one

I need a PVC porch post but most of the ones I see at Lowes or HD are foam filled with a conduit pipe for strength.
My problem is the railings don’t have much of anything to screw into.
I can just see someone leaning against the rail and going for a fall.
Anybody found better quality one anywhere???

You can get a PVC sleeve that goes over a 4" X 4" post at Lowes. The 4 x 4 gives you the strnegth you need, the sleeve gives you the look you want.
I need it to be 4X4 and was hoping for a turned colonial look. Most wraps are square from what I've seen
Any other ones that you know of?
Thanks

I don't believe I've ever seen anything other than square in a structural post.
That's all I 've found , was hoping somebody knew of a turned style one.
Thanks
