Estimating your metal studs and ceiling sections

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.

Getting metal studs and ceiling sections onto your West Midlands site

Sections come in bundles in long lengths; tell us about access for 3 m plus lengths. Our standard mainland delivery area covers West Midlands.

  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Getting the right metal studs and ceiling sections

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.

Stud width and height

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

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.
