Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors: choosing well

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.

Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors in Shirley: questions

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.

What are restraint straps for?

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

Can you deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to a site with restricted access in Shirley?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

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

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