Default Concreting in a driveway gate post - how deep??

I am gong to be buying some wooden driveway gates and fitting them my self, the gates weigh 20 kg each, one will be fixed to a post fixed to a wall the other will be fixed to a post on it's own
How deep will I need to bury the post on it's own to hold the gates weight and should I just concrete it in or hardcore at the base first?
Any help would be very much appreciated guys
