Before you order joist hangers and timber connectors

Restraint straps

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

Match the joist size

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

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Before your Oban delivery arrives

Boxed or bundled with your timber. Oban is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.

• On busy streets in Oban, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• In summer Oban gets around 17h 44m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Working out quantities for your Oban job
