If you're that worried about it being level drill one hole, put the one anchor and screw the bracket in for that hole then mark the other 3 holes, then take the screw off and drill the other 3 holes. This helps hold it level while you mark the holes.

Apparently Chicago bureaucrats are making even simple things complicated.

Nice. I do agree that drilling into brick -not mortar- is the way to go.

Drill one hole and hang bracket on that driving screw tight enough to be able to rotate the bracket around. Check the level and mark all rest holes location. Rotate the bracket , drill , install anchors, rotate bracket back and attach.

Nice! Thabk you for making this video, I'm no dish network installer but this tip will definitely work to put up my Metal Pegboards on the basement Cement block walls. I appreciate it the close up camera footage. Alot of videos I watched showed some good stuff but from like a 3ft distance and all I can see was them pointing to whete things should go and how flushed against the wall something should be lol 😆

and when installing on a roof make sure to go completely through the eves and damage the soffits

Best instruction video on flag mounts to bricks. The other videos on KZread are terrible......

Good job 👍 I enjoyed it 😎

Good thing he's wearing a hard hat.

Thanks for this lesson thumbs up

1:35 DO NOT drill near the edge of a brick.. Then he drills near the edge of 2 bricks...

@R Williams Also, you can definitively drill more than one hole per brick, as long as they are apart from each others by a distance greater or equal to the length of the anchor.

Great video. I have to put a few eye bolts into my brick for handing shade sales in my back yard. At the hardware store I was told to drill into the brick, pound in wood doweling, and our the screws into that. Any thoughts?

Three year later response. The wood can rot causing the bolts to loosen. I would avoid that method. And the people at a hardware store are probably not professional with a lot of experience doing this.

Tried to drill a TV mount with a lag bolt that came with the mount. Followed instructions, but the lag bolt blew chunks out of my plaster board and created a hole too big for the bolt. Perhaps my drill speed was too high. Filled the hole and will reattempt with a socket wrench. Will I need a anchor/shield? It's a brick house with no studs. I've seen a video that said it's ok to drill directly in bricks, but everywhere else suggests you use an anchor. Not sure how to determine the right size too

I guess the M6 will fit (Measured the width of the bolt). Not sure if I'll get a reply in time, but since using anchors will make it difficult to remove, I want to ensure that I avoid if I can.

If you aren't drilling in to structure like a Stud or Brick, your TV is probably going to end up on the floor.

Jesus Christ can we get a consensus on drill into the mortar or drill into the brick already!

Consensus is brick, unless its lightweight, and not being touched often.

hole hole hole.......everybody knows about hole...but I want to learn new things in life...

You are not checking level.... You are checking PLUMB! :-/

good job with this video

At 1:35 you say "Do not use more than two lag screws per brick", but the video seems to indicate not to use more than one lag screw per brick. Which do you recommend?

thanks

Great video, thank you.

so if i have to drill a 10mm hole into brick its ok to drill a smaller mm pilot hole first?

Your video is informative but it has a lot of holes. You mentioned the 1/2 inch holes drilled into the brick but you did not mention that you were using 5/16 dia. lag bolts. Just because I know my hex head sizes does not mean every one else does!

Dude says wtf at 2:49 because the narrator was talking about fing it up

Keep it… ummm …. Errrrrr… it’s a palindrome…. Ahhhh.. can’t think of that word.

Never allow dish to drill on Roof and walls, or bricks. No matter how professional. I have several rental properties and I never allow this. It's better to have a poll in bucket full of cement installation.

A pole in a bucket of cement can easily be moved ruining the alignment of the dish. I do agree that you should NEVER allow then to install on top of the roof. That is a guaranteed leak and most likely additional rot caused by the leak.
