How deep did the metal bracket go down? Didn't it hit the concrete fence post footing?

Thank you so much, I thought it would be much more difficult. You have saved me a lot of money and time.

Glad it helped!

Very nice. I like the zip tie trick.

[@Jean78578]

Thank you! 😊

My EZ Mender doesn't fit. I guess my posts are too wide. What would you do then?

[@Jean78578]

You could probably make your own. Maybe search home Depot for some steel L-haped piece..

[@jackiewang8532]

Very good explanation. By the way, how old is your fence?

[@Jean78578]

It was about 17 years old.

[@xuxiaotian]

Yeah that is not going to last. I’m about to replace a post because the previous owner did this to the post.

[@p.j.williams4341]

What about if it’s already in concrete?

[@Jean78578]

The brace goes down in between the fence post and the concrete.

[@amammama2116]

why don't you fill the gap?

[@Jean78578]

It's an old fence, full of gaps. Lol
