It was cemented in between pavers and is stable and very neat. The post is easy to place into and remove when necessary.

Not a huge success as it is not stable enough to support post straight even with gravel around base. Looking for another option as plastic just bends.

Hi Fiona, Thanks for your note and for the installation of sockets you do need to concrete them into the ground and not just put gravel around them. Depending on the size hole you dig, you will need minimum 1 bag and maybe 2 of concrete to correctly install the Austral ground socket so it is stable and strong. Thanks again. Regards, Kate
