Before you order joist hangers and timber connectors

Match the joist size

Hangers are sized to the joist width and depth. Order to your timber schedule.

Use the right nails

Connectors only perform with the fixings specified, usually square-twisted or connector nails in every hole the maker requires.

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.

Planning the drop in Aston

Boxed or bundled with your timber. Aston is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors questions

Can I add other materials to my Aston delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from joist hangers and timber connectors to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Can you deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to a site with restricted access in Aston?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

What size joist hanger do I need?

One that matches your joist's width and depth, and the type of support: masonry or timber.

What are restraint straps for?

They tie walls to floors and roofs so the walls are restrained against wind and other sideways loads.
