Picking the right product

Match the joist size

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

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.

Getting joist hangers and timber connectors onto your Litherland site

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

  • In summer Litherland gets around 17h 02m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • On busy streets in Litherland, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Working out quantities for your Litherland job

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.

Your questions answered

Do you deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to trades and homeowners in Litherland?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

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 Litherland 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.

What size joist hanger do I need?

One that matches your joist's width and depth, and the type of support: masonry or timber.
