How to mount an aluminum gate post on concrete path that is not level?
Wednesday
I am installing an aluminum slate gate and the posts will be mounted on the concrete path that is not level. The 50mm x 50mm post has a base plate which is to be bolted onto the concrete. How do I bolt the base plate on to ensure that it is level? Also, what anchor bolts would you recommend?
Thanks.

Hello @akoong
I propose using Dynabolts to anchor your post to the concrete base. To balance and level your post, I suggest using galvanized washers. Make sure to use a spirit level on all sides to make sure your post is square.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
