what size of fence post would be used with 6ft fence?

my husband is taking out an rotten fence post the fence is a panel fence the post is set in cement any ideas how much longer than the fence the post would be he has already picked down about a foot and doesnt seem to be there yet,thanks.

You can buy spikes which can be placed into prevvious concrete and they are about 12″ long – then you need a fence post 7′ long.

(You can buy longer spikes at 24″, but they are for going directly into the ground)

All DIY stores, Wickes, B&Q etc will sell the shorter 12″ spikes often known as “repair spikes”.
