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

Before your Dumbarton delivery arrives

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

• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
