attaching vinyl fence to my brick pillar

i put up a brick fence and when we put in the pillar right next to my neighbors vinyl post [it is his door post on his fence ,the one that has the hinges] his post came loose. we fixed it when we filled the holes with concrete but it worked loose again. how can i attach his post to my brick post without hurting my bricks. the fences are about 3 " apart. i worry that any drilled holes into my brick will just work loose after awhile. thank you for any tips

go to radio shack and get antenna mast steal banding used on chimmey mounts and use antenna mount brackets to fasten fence. use the whole post as a support distribute weight over all the bricks not just in one area then paint the banding same color as the post never know what hit it.also use 90 degree channel iron on corners so the banding does not cut into the brick just short peices not to long just tuck behind the bands paint it what ever.

thank you hobbyist. his post is about 6" by6" since i am not really familiar with what you mean will it work witha large diameter post and how do i attach the protection rods. i am a rookie so please be patient. thanks for the reply

we have chimmeys fore fire places that are bigger then that.these antenna mount goes up on roof straps on chimmey for a fire place to install a tv antenna.they come in all sizes.maybe your local hardware store might have this mount.

thank you hobbist, that was very helpful
