I need to permanently mount a piece of art work (around 10 pounds) on an outside brick wall. I see there are a variety of different types of anchors like double expansion shield, sleeve anchor, wedge anchor. What type would you recommended for this application?
Thanks!

Its easier to drill into the mortar than the brick. Tapcon will work
for you. Be sure it is anchored so wind does not blow it away.


Easy to repair and blend in later in mortar too if you decide to remove
whatever was put in place too.
