Picking the right product

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.

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.

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

Working out quantities for your Motherwell job

A 9 m metal stud partition at 600 mm centres needs 16 studs and 18 m of track, plus boards and self-drilling screws. Taller walls may need deeper studs or closer centres; follow the system maker's tables.

Before your Motherwell delivery arrives

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

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
