Is it possible to add wooden fencing to my brick wall to make it higher?
I have a 4 1/2 foot brick wall which I want to make around 6ft high and have decided using fence panels will be the most effective way of doing this as far as price is concerned.
I am after some advice on the best method of attaching the panels to the brick wall.
Answer: How you would attatch the fence panels depends on how the wall is capped. If the wall is capped with concrete , I would think you could use concrete screws with fender washers to hold the panels in place.
The brand of screws I use are called Tap-con. They come with a pilot drill bit that makes the hole for the screw, then the screws are driven with a hex head bit or a screwdriver. They go in easier with the hex head bit. I've got a link to the tapcons in the source box.
