Choosing joist hangers and timber connectors

Match the joist size

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

Restraint straps

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

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 Spalding

What are restraint straps for?

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

Can I add other materials to my Spalding 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.

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.

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

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.
