hi!
I'm wanting to set a 80mm x 80mm x 5mm steel section into the ground to make a gate post that i can weld hinge pins onto and hang my steel gate from. Never set a steel post in the ground before... is there anything I need to consider?
Should it be treated first? Do I need to drill drain holes or anything?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Matthew
