Thoughts on securing fence posts with spikes

[Greg_the_ builder]

I am about to put up a fence 60 feet long, 6 feet high spacing appropriately for each post. I am wondering if putting in spikes to secure the posts are sufficient. It would be quite a pain to dig holds and secure with cement due to the location.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Why would it be a pain to dig holes? Bushes trees etc? or debris in ground etc?

I tend not to use metposts as they tend to twist on installation and with a six foot high fence panel dont give that much support.

If you want a good job that will last, concrete all the way.
