Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors: choosing well

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.

Common questions from Nelson

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.

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

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

What are restraint straps for?

They tie walls to floors and roofs so the walls are restrained against wind and other sideways loads.
