gate post on concrete

Hi Chaps, my latest conundrum;

re-purposing an aluminum slat gate down the side of the house. The gate is approx 1500 wide. Issue I came across today while trying to install is that the post i bought and installed whilst being firmly bolted in to the concrete the post is 50mm aluminum and too lightweight and flexes way to much to support the gate. Back to the drawing board, what type post should I use ?
