How delivery works in Norwich

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

  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Estimating your metal studs and ceiling sections

A 6 m metal stud partition at 600 mm centres needs 11 studs and 12 m of track, plus boards and self-drilling screws. Taller walls may need deeper studs or closer centres; follow the system maker's tables.

Metal Stud & Ceiling Systems: choosing well

Stud width and height

Taller walls need deeper studs or closer centres; the system maker's height tables show the limits.

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 England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.
