I'm using 4x metal posts. These will be painted galvanized and "exposed". Rails and pickets will be inset to the 4x.
I have one side that is street facing, and i want the post abutting a brick garage wall.
The question is, should I put post as close to brick as possible? I can get it flush, but should there be a small air gap? If yes would you fill the gap or trim some how? Even if I get 100% flush there will still be gaps at grout joints.
