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

Ordering joist hangers and timber connectors for Ayrshire: FAQs

What are restraint straps for?

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

Do you deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to trades and homeowners in Ayrshire?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

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

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.

Are hangers suitable outside?

Galvanised hangers suit most sheltered external use; very exposed or coastal locations may need stainless steel.
