Ok so if I got the 8 x 40mm duopower wall plug then drill hole in brick, tap that plug in the offer the timber up and drill something like a turbo coach 6 x 90mm through The 44mm depth timber and into plug that would mean the screw would go out of the plug in the brick by about 6mm

I checked the screws that are used to secure the other side of the frame that’s going into the house and they are 6mm x 150mm. However that side of the frame is just to retain the door. The other side that I’m doing is where the weight will be and the door will be hung

Here’s the wall that the wood will need to screw into so the timber will be vertical where that yellow line is so it will be near to the end of the wall so I don’t want to over stress the bricks when tightening in the bolts. But it will be holding a solid wood door so want to make sure the setup...

When drilling the hole in the face of the brick would you try to drill and head for one of the holes in the middle of brick? Or go for the price of brick between the holes as in my picture?
