Anchors, Bolts & Threaded Rod for sites in Edinburgh and the Lothians

Estimating your anchors and bolts

As an illustration only: anchors at 600 mm centres along a 4.8 m ledger means 9 fixings. Structural fixings must follow your design, so send us the specified anchor and spacing and we will price it.

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • On busy streets in Edinburgh and the Lothians, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Choosing anchors and bolts

Edge distances

Every anchor has minimum edge distances and spacings; fixing too close to an edge can crack the masonry.

Structural fixings

For anything structural or safety-critical, such as a ledger carrying a floor or a balustrade, use anchors with a technical assessment and follow the design.
