I bought some "ladder hooks". they will probably be delivered to me in a few days. pack of 5 which are designed to hold up ladders against the wall... say in the garage. http://images.marketworks.com/fullview.asp?id=226745086&fc=0&img=http://www.choiceful.com/ebay/ebayimage/27556.jpg i intend to use mine to hold up some wooden garden chairs which fold.. like 2 hooks parallel on the wall, hopefully to fit and support the weight of 2 chairs on the hooks. http://re3.mm-a5.yimg.com/image/3377925057 problem 1: garage is brick. i have fully used the upper layer of timber for other storage hooks... but i have never attempted drilling in to brick. problem 2: i have only experienced storage hooks of the type which have 1 or 2 holes in them. there all i did was add a supporting wooden baton to the timber in garage.. then secured the hooks in to the baton with screws. the ladder hooks have no hole for screws, but the screw itself seems part of the hook? how to best fit these pls ? thx.

Hi to fit these hooks do the following 1. measure the length of what you would like to hang (whilst folded) 2. mark wall at height of measurement taken + the height you want it off floor on the wall 3. drill as many holes as you have brackets, equally spaced in the wall with approximately 10mm dia (masonary bit) 0r as manufacturers reccommendation. 4.tap appropriate plugs in holes with a hammer (usually colour coded grey for 10mm) 5. screw the hooks into the plugs, ensure all thread is in wall. 6. hang items carefully to check weight is ok for hooks.
