The fence at the bottom of my garden is down. There are two healthy (looking) mature horse chestnuts there, that would make pretty good posts. Will I harm them by screwing about 6 coach bolts into each. Maybe 4-6 inches long?

Each tree is maybe 2-3 feet in diameter. I wondered if stainless steel coach bolts would be best.
 
Yes you will harm the trees, will you kill them, probably not.
