ADVANTAGES of 13" Chimney Bracket & Lashing Kit

- A relatively cheap way of mounting a pole / mast on a house
- Gives best achievable results as normally mounted on highest point on a house i.e. the chimney
- Flexible - unlike a TK bracket mounted on a gable wall it has full 360 degree freedom to pick up from any transmitter.
- More robust and stronger than a 9 inch chimney bracket - hassle free and safe once correclty installed
- Unlike TK brackets it does not require a drill
DISADVANTAGES of 13 inch Chimney Bracket
- Limited offset means that it struggles to pass reveal on some chimneys (use TK brackets in such cases)
- More expensive to install than a 9 inch chimney bracket
- Requires special tools i.e. roof ladder etc to mount bracket on a chimney
- Roof work is by its nature far more dangerous than working off standard ladder
- Not sufficiently robust to mount a satellite dish (though some installers do)
- More expensive than a satellite dish bracket
- Not suitable for very heavy loads or long poles - which might require:
- Double lashings kits
- T&K brackets
Tools needed
- A ladder
- Roof ladder
- Ratchet & 15mm long neck socket
- Snips
- Vice grips
- Safety equipment (harness, safety mat etc)
Equipment needed
- Chimney bracket (9 inch or 13 inch) with lashing kit
- Pole (1.8m long, 32mm diameter - steel or aluminium)
Location
- On a chimney
Steps to Install
- Position the roof ladder adjacent to the chimney and secure the ladders and put on all safety equipment
- Ascend the ladder with the tools and equipment
- Open the lashing kit bag and wrap the end of the wire coil 4 times around the loop on the "J"-bolt
- Slot the threaded end of the "J"-bolt into the hole in the chimney cradle
- Wrap the wire coil around the chimney keep as straight as possible
- Wrap the wire coil 4 times around the loop on the other "J"-bolt
- Making sure it is just long enough to slot into the other side of the chimney bracket
- Cut off excess wire coil
- Put angle brackets under the wire coil at the other 3 corners of the chimney
- Use the 15mm socket to tighten the nuts on the "J"-bolts while using the vice grips to clamp the "J"-bolt
- Insert the U-bolts into the bracket and loosely tighten
