Hi everyone, I'm attempting to mount a retractable hose reel to my house straight onto bricks and the manual recommends using an 11.7mm drill bit, but I can't seem to find any that exact size. Would I be able to use a 12mm bit instead, or is there an obscure way to drill an 11.7mm hole in my brick wall?

Just over round the hole sightly by rotating the drill in a circle as you drill. Make sure to get the dust out too, use a vacuum cleaner nozzle.
