Things to check before you order

Restraint straps

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

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.

Delivering joist hangers and timber connectors in Blackheath

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

  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • With roughly 7h 50m of daylight in Blackheath around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • On busy streets in Blackheath, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Your questions answered

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Blackheath?

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.

Are hangers suitable outside?

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

Can I add other materials to my Blackheath 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.

Do I nail every hole in a joist hanger?

Follow the maker's instructions; many hangers need specific nails in specific holes to reach their rated load.
