Securing wooden fence posts into concrete driveway?

NewtoDIY

Can anyone recommend or advise on the best way to secure wooden fence posts into a concrete driveway (for use with fence panels)?

The current rotten concrete posts will be dug up but we would like to install wooden posts and gravel boards (instead of concrete). I know that they should be treated every year but how best to prevent rot?

I'd use concrete posts instead of wooden ones and they tend to last longer.

If you do decide on the bolt down post supports, note they will not be as strong as posts which have dug/concreted in.

If you are removing old concrete posts then I presume that this will leave large holes. So personally I would use these holes and concrete new concrete posts is as they will last far longer. Then you can use concrete gravel boards which won't rot.

Doing it this way, all you have to do when the fence panels need replacing, is slide them out, and slide the new ones in.
