What is the wall construction? (As there are several types that "are

Of course.

It's a wall that *should be* solid, brick, rest of it was nice to
drill into.


You've hit the brick joints,


With all three screws? That's bad luck, but possible, I suppose.

Mother in law will no doubt complain about the mess, the noise, the
ruining of all her decorations, and the slow speed which the work is
done at. Also, she doesn't want the damn handrail, doesn't want any
changes, and won't admit she needs a handrail or use it once it's up. Or
was that just my MIL?
