We supply wall starters designed for creating strong structural connections between masonry walls and timber construction elements. These galvanised steel components provide the essential link between concrete blockwork, brick walls and floor joists, ensuring building regulations compliance while maintaining structural integrity. Our wall starters are manufactured to BS standards and offer the reliable performance that construction professionals demand. Available in various lengths and configurations, these fixing components deliver the structural connection solutions needed for both new build projects and renovation work across residential and commercial applications.
Wall starters work alongside other structural connectors to create comprehensive fixing solutions for modern construction methods. These components typically feature a built-in wall tie section that embeds into mortar joints, combined with a timber connection plate that accepts standard fixing screws or bolts. The galvanised coating provides long-term corrosion resistance, making them suitable for both internal and external applications where moisture exposure occurs.
For complete structural connection systems, wall starters complement our Joist Hangers and Metal Straps, Fixing Band, Metal Plates ranges. Different wall starter configurations accommodate varying wall thicknesses and joist dimensions, while the pre-punched holes ensure straightforward installation with standard timber screws. The robust steel construction handles both vertical loads and lateral forces, providing the multi-directional support that timber frame and masonry construction requires.
