I have to fit joists onto a ledger plate bolted to the wall. Masonry
hangers into the wall is not an option as the mortar courses are not

225mm. What type of speedy joist hanger to use ?
There are types (maxi-speedy ?) that just nail to the side of the
timber, or ones (long-leg ?) which are wrapped over the top
(presumably recessed into the back of the ledger plate so the rear
surface is still flat against the wall).

You can bolt Maxi Speedys to the ledger plate. I've used these to do so

Magnetic hex nut driver in a cordless makes it a quick job.
