Hanging a pallet planter on a brick wall

[jmowreader]

1. Simpson HL57 Heavy Angles and A23 Angles are your friends

I would recommend using Tapcon screws instead of regular masonry anchors. They work well and they're easier to use.

I wish I could post a picture, but how this is going to be set up: the HL57s are going to be against the wall with the five-inch leg screwed to the wall pointing up and the pallet sitting on the seven-inch leg. The A23s are going to be screwed or bolted to the underside of the top of the pallet (in the part where the forklift tines go), butted up against the HL57s, and one Tapcon screw will go through both connectors into the wall.

The advantage of doing it this way is you won't see much of the connectors, and you can paint them.
