Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors delivered to Heywood

Timber connectors are galvanised steel brackets that join and restrain structural timber, such as joist hangers that carry joists off a wall or beam and restraint straps that tie floors and roofs to walls.

Whether it is a repair, an extension or a new build in Heywood, we can supply the joist hangers and timber connectors and deliver to site.

Getting the right joist hangers and timber connectors

Use the right nails

Connectors only perform with the fixings specified, usually square-twisted or connector nails in every hole the maker requires.

Match the joist size

Hangers are sized to the joist width and depth. Order to your timber schedule.

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.

A quick quantity check

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.

Delivering joist hangers and timber connectors in Heywood

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

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • In summer Heywood gets around 17h 03m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Your questions answered

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Heywood?

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.

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.

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

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.
