Hello, I'd appreciate advice on how to attach 4x 1.8m bamboo screens to a brick wall please. Our plan is to attach three wooden railings to the brick wall and then screw the bamboo screens into these railings (top, middle and bottom). We attempted to attach the wooden railings to the brick wall (solid brick) using Macsim 6x40mm Bettadrive Anchors however the anchors were not secure and could be pulled out. We tried both a 6mm pilot hole (per instructions on other websites) as well as a 5mm pilot hole per Bunnings website (unable to insert the anchor into the smaller hole).

Hi @nc
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your bamboo screen.
Your plan for the bamboo installation is spot on! However, I suggest using the Ramset 8 x 50mm Universal Anchor - 20 Pack instead of the Macsim plugs. If you feel you need a longer screw due to the thickness of your timber railings make sure to bring one of the universal screws so that you get the correct size of the screw at the store.
If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
