Trouble is, I cannot drill into these posts to screw in the

cross
battens. Invariably I get in half inch or so, hit a stone, then

the
drill rapdily goes blunt, and goes no further.
SDS drill with diamond bit?

SDS with a normal masonry bit. Done it loads of times.



These posts normally have reinforcing bars in them just to make life more
difficult
