Hi Folks, I've just joined this forum hoping to find some gen on the mysterys of slotted concrete fence posts. I've never used them before, always preferring repair spurs and wood posts. However, I have to put up 2 panels which have earth & bushes 18" high on the neighbours side, and which also has to end forming a T joint to existing fences.
So....I need 2 x 12" concrete gravel boards to clear the wet bits plus a 4ft wooden fence. Sliding all this into slotted concrete posts seem the easiest option, but I'll need some way of firmly attaching a wooden post to the non slotted side of a single slotted 'end' post.
In all the ads there's no mention of any holes (presumably these would reduce the strength too much) and I'm wondering what prevents fence panels being slide up & out of the slots by the roaming ASBO brigade?
Do they have holes? Can wooden posts be fixed to them? Any info would help please.
