Structural fixings

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

Quantities: a worked example

Before your Durham delivery arrives

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

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• In summer Durham gets around 17h 19m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
