Things to check before you order

Inside or outside?

Use galvanised, coated or stainless fixings outdoors and with treated timber, so they do not corrode.

Length

A rule of thumb is a fixing at least two and a half times the thickness of the piece you are fixing.

Before your Coalville delivery arrives

Boxed fixings travel with the rest of your order. Coalville is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• In summer Coalville gets around 16h 53m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
