Delivery to Shrewsbury: what helps

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

• In summer Shrewsbury gets around 16h 52m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• On busy streets in Shrewsbury, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Quantities: a worked example

A 3 m metal stud partition at 600 mm centres needs 6 studs and 6 m of track, plus boards and self-drilling screws. Taller walls may need deeper studs or closer centres; follow the system maker's tables.

Things to check before you order

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 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.

Ordering metal studs and ceiling sections for Shrewsbury: FAQs

Can you deliver metal studs and ceiling sections to a site with restricted access in Shrewsbury?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Are metal studs better than timber?

They are straight, light and dimensionally stable. Timber is often easier for domestic jobs and for fixing heavy items. Both work well when designed properly.

Do you deliver metal studs and ceiling sections to trades and homeowners in Shrewsbury?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

What screws do metal studs need?

Self-drilling drywall screws for fixing boards to metal, and wafer-head screws for joining sections.
