Things to check before you order

Use the right nails

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

Match the joist size

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

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors in Bishopbriggs: questions

Can I add other materials to my Bishopbriggs 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.

What size joist hanger do I need?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Bishopbriggs?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

What are restraint straps for?

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