Trellis for ON actual brickwork for climbers. Advice appreciated! (pic)

Afternoon,

I have signed up after never knowing about this site! I'm a keen young gardener and bought our house with only a turfed lawn. It's been a work in progress and I'll be sure to put up some pics of the developments over the last couple of years.

My question is one that's puzzled me, and I just can't find a reasonable product to assist here...

As you can see below, our neighbours and us went halves on a new wall. They aren't fussed on a trellis but when we agreed on the wall I stated I'd be putting up a trellis for security/privacy. I've planted a couple of Clematis Montana Mayleens at the base of the wall to get this progressing quickly!

Do you have any suggestions/ideas on how to mount/kits available to put up a kit and for it to look good? Any pics or help would be MUCH appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Sam

 

I hope I am not missing the point but why can't you buy a piece of trellis and just fix it to the wall?

Intention is to mount on "top" of the wall perhaps?

 

Is the low section of wall where you want the trellis, and is it only one brick thick?

 

Maybe fix the trellis half way up the wall then take it above the height of the wall. With some supports against the wall and trellis to stop the weight of the plants and wind taking it over.

 

As an alternative to trellis you could string wires spaced at about 10cm. You'll still require supports but 5cm posts every few metres and fastened to the wall about half way down would do.

 

Thanks for advice so far!

I can indeed fit it on the wall but would ideally like it on the wall with no posts going down the brickwork.

It is one skin of bricks thick and I only want trellis on the low part of the wall

Love he curved trellis but haven't seen this in a height around 80cm? Also, what fixings would you suggest shiney?

Thanks again all

 

Jwk. I can confirm there are piers tied in the other side.

 

Haha. Appreciate the concern though so thanks

I think there's plenty of trellis that will be suitable. I guess it's the mounting on the top to look good that's my concern!

I've seen these studded posts which drill into the wall that could potentially be an option. Pricey mind!

"M10 zinc plated studding"

Doesn't state high tensile. Personally, M10 seems a bit light weight to withstand extreme wind.
Also it doesn't say about the fixings to go into the wall coming with them and they will be an extra expense.
