Before your Durham delivery arrives

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

• In summer Durham gets around 17h 19m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• With roughly 7h 13m of daylight in Durham around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.

Choosing joist hangers and timber connectors

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.

How much will you need?

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 in Durham: questions

How soon can joist hangers and timber connectors be delivered in Durham?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

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 Durham?

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.

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.
