Remove protective post in garage
Has anyone removed a protective post from their garage? When we bought our house there was a 3' x 6" post on the garage floor in front of our water heater in the garage to protect the water heater from damage when the car was pulled into the garage. We removed the conventional water heater and replaced it with a gas tankless water heater that is mounted outside the garage. This freed up quite a bit of floor / storage space where the hot water heater used to be....except for the fact that the steel post is still there out in the garage floor. It is fastened to the garage floor with large bolts. I have tried to remove them with my socket set and even used a 1" x 4' pipe as a handle extension to get more torque.
If you have removed such a pipe:
1. What did you use to remove it? -or-
2. Who removed it for you?
Thanks!
