Mounting a Retractable Awning on Brick: Complete Guide 2026

Brick mounting requires concrete anchors or sleeve anchors drilled into the brick face (not mortar joints). Hardware costs $75–$150, professional labor $300–$600. Moderate DIY difficulty — requires a hammer drill.

Key Considerations

• Always drill into brick face, not mortar joints
• Use 1/2" concrete sleeve anchors, minimum 3" embedment
• Pre-drill with masonry bit, clear dust before inserting anchors
