Suggestions for this yellow Kleton universal post

For the installer drilling concrete to anchor these Kleton posts at the foot of a future partition, plan for a Pioneer women's yellow surveyor vest (V6693F) with 15 pockets to keep bolts and nuts within reach, TenActiv composite fibre gloves (GS21TXUFN) with foam nitrile coating, Virtua Max safety glasses (YA11872) with foam seal that block drilling dust, a 3M over-the-head earmuff (OPH7A) and a 3M 8210 mask (R8210) against concrete dust.

The posts take the yellow Kleton wire mesh panels: the 4 x 4 ft panel (EBKD130) and the 8 x 4 ft one, wider (EBKD131). Where a post meets a wall, install the Kleton wall bracket (IGKD115), offered in blue. The 49-1/2 in post also comes in blue (EBKH861) for blue mesh guards, and the same posts are used with the blue 1 ft high partition panels (IGKD121).
