Hi,
I'm going to be putting a 4' high fence around the perimeter of the garden into soil using bags of 'postfix' stuff. Bought the posts and wooden panels. Posts looks to be around 3"x3".
How deep should they be set in the ground ideally? Soil is more sandy than anything and quite soft.
Also, how far should the tops of the posts extend beyond the tops of the fence panels? And is it usual to sit the panels directly on the soil beneath, or run a concrete or gravel line in the ground for the panels to sit upon?
Thanks for any tips. If the rain in North Wales ever stops I'll start the job.
