Before your Droylsden delivery arrives

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

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Sizing your order

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 10 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 10 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.

Getting the right 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.
