Simpson Strong-Tie BVLZ-KT4 BLVZ™ ZMAX® Galvanized Brick Veneer Ledger Connector (4-Qty)

Simpson Strong-Tie BVLZ-KT4 BLVZ™ ZMAX® Galvanized Brick Veneer Ledger Connector (4-Qty)

The BVLZ brick veneer ledger connector provides a code-compliant, tested solution for safely adding a deck to an existing house with brick veneer exterior. It attaches a wood ledger to the framing through the veneer. This connector kit provides a viable alternative to building a free-standing deck, and it installs without having to remove or replace large sections of brick veneer. Each BVLZ brick veneer ledger connector kit includes a steel ledger plate, a compression strut, installation guide, two 14-in. Strong-Drive® SDWH Timber-Hex HDG tension screws and six Strong-Drive SD Connector shear screws. It's designed so the two tension screws pass through the mortar into the structural framing, and the compression strut transfers compression forces from the ledger plate to the rim joist. The system enables the ledger to hang freely without bearing on the brick veneer.

This Simpson product is designed for construction, connector, fastening, anchoring, and structural applications where dependable performance, durability, and jobsite-ready installation matter.
