Post protector
A post protector includes an elongated hollow shaft, a handle provided at a first end of the elongated hollow shaft, the handle including a trigger mechanism, and a base portion provided at a second end of the elongated hollow shaft opposite the first end. A pair of protector panels are pivotally connected to the base portion and are movable between a use position in which distal ends of the panels are in contact to form together an internal shape corresponding to at least a portion of an external shape of a post to be protected, and an installation/removal position. An actuator mechanism is provided between and connected to the trigger mechanism and the protector panels. The actuator mechanism is responsive to movement of the trigger mechanism to move the pair of protector panels between the use position and the installation/removal position.
