Good afternoon dear forum, I want to install anchors in a brick wall to mount a TV wall bracket with a maximum load of 40kg. Unfortunately, I do not know what type of brick this is or whether anchors would be stable enough. Photos are attached. Maybe someone knows better what to do :) Thank you very much in advance

How heavy is the TV itself? It won't weigh 40kg, will it? Our 65-inch is mounted on sand-lime brick. I would be cautious with cavity blocks or aerated concrete.

Thank you for the quick response! My TV also has a 65-inch diagonal and weighs 33kg without the stand. When tapping, the wall definitely does not sound solid. Therefore, I am somewhat concerned about this.

There are universal plugs from various manufacturers in different diameters and lengths, with matching screws, e.g. UX series, get advice at the hardware store

That is no problem at all. The stones will definitely hold - basement, right?

The anchors in the bracket are probably sufficient. Otherwise, off to the hardware store. If you’re “afraid,” use the Duopower 10x80 with matching hex screws. If something still falls down, you should probably move out ;)

We also hung our TV with heavy hexagon head bolts from Fischer. You could probably have hung a small car on them. Better to have than to need, I think. Hexagon head is definitely preferable because it tightens better than a Phillips head.
