Before you order metal studs and ceiling sections

Follow the system

Metal stud partitions and ceilings are designed as tested systems with specific boards, sections and screws. Order to the system specification, especially where fire or acoustic ratings apply.

Metal or timber?

Metal studs are straight, light and do not shrink or twist; timber is easier for fixing heavy items and is more familiar on domestic jobs.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Getting metal studs and ceiling sections onto your Bonnyrigg site

Sections come in bundles in long lengths; tell us about access for 3 m plus lengths. Bonnyrigg is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • On busy streets in Bonnyrigg, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
