Choosing screws and nails

Length

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

Inside or outside?

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

Delivery to Edinburgh: what helps

Boxed fixings travel with the rest of your order. Edinburgh 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.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around EH1 are priced to the exact address.
