Drill through the rock and secure the mount with long bolts with nuts on the backside (in your closet). That will be sturdier than anything else you can easily do.

There's plenty of room to cut some 2"x4"s and brace between the studs.

Smart move not putting it above the fireplace and voiding your warranty.

Ive done it. Use the hammer in wall anchors, they look like big nails but expand behind the bricks. Very solid.

Figure out what size you need for your item's weight....

yup. if you're worried, just add a couple more to the mount instead of the normal 4 and you're good to go. i've mounted 2 to brick.

everyone loves blue tapcons!

eta make sure you have a hammer-drill or you will be in hell drilling holes.

You're talking about the outlet by the door? Oh, I was thinking you'd want a cord free view

But Sanus does not recommend mounting to brick.
simply so they are not liable for improper hanging...tapcons (masonry screws) should be plenty,drill the proper size hole and do not overtighten.

Cut some 12" square pieces of 1/2" plywood. Drill your holes through the mortar and use bolts, washers and nuts. Put the bolts through the plywood to distribute the weight.
