pre-fabricated post

I have used the singular as the term requested was singular - obviously in the document it would be posts.

"en série" is mass produced. "une série de" would be a set of.

: except no one would say mass-produced in this context/you only added "standard issue" after my comment - that's not correct either

You must be the only one to hold the truth! But thank God, I (or others) don't need you to make my own comments or give my answers
