Common questions from Holywood

Can I add other materials to my Holywood 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.

Are hangers suitable outside?

Galvanised hangers suit most sheltered external use; very exposed or coastal locations may need stainless steel.

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

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.

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.
