Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors delivered to Newtown

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.

Trades and homeowners in Newtown can order joist hangers and timber connectors for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Before you order 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.

Restraint straps

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

Wales has its own Approved Documents, including its own Part L for energy efficiency, and building control is handled by the local authority or a registered approver.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors questions

What size joist hanger do I need?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Newtown?

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.

Can I use ordinary nails in hangers?

Use the connector nails or screws specified by the maker, usually square-twisted galvanised nails.

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

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