Hi,

I have a newel post which I need to fix against the bottom of a brick
wall - I can't mount a fixing vertically through the base of the post,
so whatever I use will need to be driven in horizontally through the
side of the post into the brick. Can anyone suggest what type of
fixing I should use?

Thanks

Steve

Assuming its a 100mm post use these
http://www.wickes.co.uk/Fixings-Spec...et/invt/510009 but
counterbore a 35mm deep hole in the post, of sufficient diameter to get a
socket on the head.
