A panel fence post assembly 20 for placement on an excavation retaining wall 22. An inverted U-shaped saddle 30 having a top portion 32 with a front leg 34 and a rear leg 36 each integrally connected to and extending from the top portion 32 with the rear leg 36 spaced from the front leg 34 to define an opening for receiving the retaining wall 22. The saddle 30 has a constant thickness through the legs 34, 36 and the top portion 32 thereof. A post member 44 extends upwardly from the top portion 32 of the U-shaped saddle 30. A plurality of guardrail channels 70 are disposed on the post member 44 and extend perpendicularly to the post member 44 for receiving and supporting guardrails. U-shaped reinforcing plates 40 extend about the top portion 32 and legs 34, 36 of the U-shaped saddle 30 for strength and support. Various parts can be bent from single sheet stock making the assembly more cost effective and easier to produce.
