Product Details

SAMAC Fish Tail Door Frame Ties are traditional masonry fixings designed to securely anchor timber door and window frames into brick or blockwork. Featuring a fishtail end, these ties are built into mortar joints to create a strong mechanical bond between the frame and surrounding masonry, ensuring long-term stability in both new build and retrofit applications.

Manufactured from galvanised steel, these frame ties offer reliable durability and corrosion resistance for internal and protected external use. The standard design includes a 50mm upstand with pre-drilled fixing holes for secure attachment to the frame, while the fishtail end embeds firmly into mortar joints to provide a robust fixing. Available in a range of projection lengths (typically 100mm, 150mm, and 200mm), they suit varying cavity widths and installation requirements.
