Builders Metal Work

Builders metalwork: the structural fixings that hold the job together

The unsung heroes of any build. Joist hangers, wall ties and frame fixing lugs don't get admired when the job's done, but nothing gets signed off without them. This collection covers the galvanised steel structural metalwork trade brickies, carpenters and window fitters specify every day.

About this range

What's in this collection

  • Timber Joist Hangers, 50mm, 75mm, 100mm, 150mm. Galvanised steel U-brackets for hanging joists off beams, wall plates or masonry. Standard-leg profile suits most first-fix carpentry. Pick the size to match your joist width; 100mm and 150mm are the workhorses for domestic floor and ceiling joists.
  • Steel Frame Fixing Lugs (Windows & Doors). Galvanised anchor plates for securing window frames and door frames into masonry openings. Standard trade profile: one leg into the frame, one leg into the brickwork or blockwork. Speeds up frame installs and gives inspectors a clean signature.
  • Double Triangle Wall Ties. Classic twist-type cavity wall ties for bridging the inner and outer leaf of a cavity wall. Galvanised for long-term corrosion resistance. Used in both new-build brickwork and cavity repair/retrofit work.
