I'm replacing a fence. The old fence posts were looser than <insert punchline here>. One of my gates is immediately adjacent to my house. Formerly the 'catch' post was adjacent to the house.
I'm considering anchoring the new post to the house. I would anchor into bricks, not mortar.
Options that I see:
Catch adjacent to house, anchored to house, and double-post opposite side to support the weight of the gate.
Gate hinge on single post anchored to house. Single catch post opposite the hinge.
Thank you,
Brian
