Joist Hangers & Timber Connectors delivered to Thamesmead

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.

We deliver joist hangers and timber connectors to sites, driveways and yards across Thamesmead, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Things to check before you order

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 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.

A quick quantity check

A floor 5.4 m wide with joists at 400 mm centres has 15 joists; hung off a wall at one end that is 15 joist hangers, plus restraint straps at the spacing your design shows.

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.
