Planning the drop in Dorset

Boxed fixings travel with the rest of your order. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Dorset.

• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• On busy streets in Dorset, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Getting the right screws and nails

Inside or outside?

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

Structural fixings

Joist hangers, straps and structural connections need the fixings the connector maker specifies.
