Jiffy Joist Hangers

Long Description:

A joist that’s just nailed or screwed at an angle into a supporting beam isn’t carrying load the way it should — over time that connection works loose under the weight of a floor or deck above it. This hanger takes the joist properly, distributing the load into the supporting structure the way building regulations expect for this kind of connection.

Features & Benefits

• Distributes structural load properly at the joist connection
• Galvanised steel resists corrosion, indoors and out
• Quick to fit with standard nails or screws
• Suits flooring, decking, and roof structures alike

Specifications
These are galvanised steel joist hangers designed for structural support of timber joists connecting to beams, masonry, or steel. Suits residential, commercial, and industrial construction, indoors and outdoors.

Where It’s Used
Comes up on timber floor systems, decking, loft conversions, extensions, and garden buildings — anywhere a joist needs a proper structural connection rather than a basic fixing.

Fitting
Fit tight to the supporting beam or wall with no gap, and use the correct fixings specified for the hanger rather than substituting with whatever’s on hand, since undersized fixings are one of the more common reasons a hanger doesn’t perform as designed. This is structural work, so it’s worth checking it meets current building regulations for the span and load involved. Comes through the same suppliers as the rest of our building materials range.
