    advice needed on first attempt

    ok guys im gonna do my first attempt to install a motorised sat dish
    when the wind has dropped,just a couple of questions
    which type of anchor bolt should i use
    a rawlbolt type,or a sleeve type,the t&k brackets are going on the
    wall at back which has render on with stone chips on then you got the brick
    would the sleeve anchor do for this,or will i need the rawl bolt type,would i have
    to chip away around the brackets to expose the brickwork,then put either the sleeve type
    or rawl type bolt in or just leave the render alone and drill thru into the brick

    also hopefully im gonna have the dish above the guttering,how for above the gutterin should roughly the end of the pole be about 1.5mtrs ????
    dish is 1mtr,the pole 10'

    Exposing the brickwork will show you your brick position, so you can place your bracket just right, ie with the drill holes in the centres of the bricks (not the edge or in the mortar).
    The sleeve ones are solid, but can crack a brick if your unlucky, but I would still use these.
    The best stuff I have used for this type of work is threaded bar stuck in with two pack chemical cement. Solid as a rock and no cracked bricks.
