Before you order joist hangers and timber connectors

Restraint straps

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

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.

How delivery works in Hamilton

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

  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • On busy streets in Hamilton, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

How much will you need?

A floor 4.2 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 12 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 12 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors questions

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Hamilton?

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.

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 Hamilton 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.
