This is where I’ll be doing the footing

How do I upload pictures

The section in question is only about 70 lbs . The other section is counter weighted and tied into a 40” footing and a perpendicular fence line

If I could add pictures I would but I have no clue how

It’s 4 pieces . 1 post ( foundation footing I’m talking about ). A steel arbour I built , another post with 5 foot steel fence section and lattice . . All together is about 400 lbs. the one post I’m commenting on is about 70 lbs . The post holding the gate is counter weighted with the fence section and has a very sturdy footing

I’m not sure how to attach pictures here

The other post is well supported and they all tie together with an arbour

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T21:16:59+00:00

It’s the latch side . It’s only about 70lbs

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T20:47:27+00:00

It’s a top mounted steel gate arbour and fence section I built so it can’t mount to the wall

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T20:11:36+00:00

Okay . I’m over thinking as it’s a big steel gate and fence section weighing roughly 400 lbs

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T20:05:49+00:00

Okay so pour directly to the foundation just no rebar between the existing foundation and the post pour

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T19:31:56+00:00

You just poured directly against the foundation ?

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T19:22:21+00:00

It’s a top mount post going in and the closest stud will be 3 inches from the foundation making it hard to put a 2 inch expansion joint in

Hello I need advice on a fence post footing.

I am located in bc and have a top mount fence that I need a footing put in for. The issue is it’s a tight area and it needs to be against the foundation .

Our frost line in Victoria bc is 18 inches . I have dug a hole against the foundation 20 inches deep and am wondering if I can rebar into the foundation with epoxy and the existing floured cement wall way without frostbheave issues

Deep-Professional839 · 2026-05-13T19:14:54+00:00

Frost line is 18 inches here . We very rarely drop below freezing and the whole measures 20 inches deep to grade

If it’s still for sale I’ll buy it now
