Options for wooden fence posts:
(1) Dig a hole, put the end in, ram the earth down
(2) MetPost spikes, no hole
(3) Dig a hole, PostFix the post in
Which ones are likely to last 5 years for 6' * 6' fence panels? Post into earth seems the cheapest but what with all the windy weather I wonder how long this will stay firm. Don't know how strong MetPost spikes are. Don't want to have to go back (or pay someone) to re-fix the posts and panels.
Proper way is to use concrete posts in postfix and concrete gravel boards but this is for a rental property to be sold in about 4-5 years time.
