Order joist hangers and timber connectors for delivery in Basingstoke

Timber connectors are galvanised steel brackets that join and restrain structural timber, such as joist hangers that carry joists off a wall or beam and restraint straps that tie floors and roofs to walls.

Trades and homeowners in Basingstoke can order joist hangers and timber connectors for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Choosing joist hangers and timber connectors

Match the joist size

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

Restraint straps

Building regulations require lateral restraint in many situations; your design shows where.

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.

Sizing your order

A floor 3 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 9 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 9 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors questions

Can I use ordinary nails in hangers?

Use the connector nails or screws specified by the maker, usually square-twisted galvanised nails.

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

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 Basingstoke?

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.
