SAMAC Build-In Joist Hangers are designed to provide a strong and reliable method of supporting timber joists within masonry walls. Built directly into mortar joints during construction, these hangers create a secure structural connection between timber joists and brick or blockwork, making them a standard solution for floor and roof joist support in UK construction.
Manufactured from galvanised steel, SAMAC joist hangers offer excellent strength and corrosion resistance for long-term performance in structural applications. Their design allows loads from timber joists to be safely transferred into the surrounding masonry, while also preventing lateral movement. Available in a range of sizes to suit common joist dimensions, they are suitable for use in domestic, residential, and light commercial projects. Build-in joist hangers are widely specified due to their reliability and ease of installation during bricklaying works.
