  • Yes, wooden posts set in cement. Not sure how deep, because it was new construction, so I didn’t do it. It seems weird that it’s still settling, but we have definitely been having insane weather swings since it was built, that we don’t normally get.

    Austin IS prone to foundation issues because something about our soul isn’t great… I’m in an area that isn’t too bad, but definitely has some issues.

    It does sound like we’re going to have to reset those posts deeper.


  • Theyre all wooden posts, set in cement. I don’t know how deep though… We hired someone to do it. They are definitely moving vertically, but I don’t think there’s any wobble from side to side… The latch is locking, and it’s about two inches tall, but it is always in line in the y axis, it just goes off up and down. Not sure if it’s both sides moving, but I know the gate is now also hitting the cement holding the opposite post.

    Pics would help for sure, I’ll get some tomorrow.
