Product Information

Perfect for use with our Framola range of Pergola brackets, these brackets are suitable for use as roof joists when creating roofs and tops for any.

Finished in our Textured Black powder coat, the bracket is not only strong but also has a premium quality look and feel that matches our Framola range perfectly. It extends from the edge of the ridge beam down to the center of the wall, making it perpendicular to the common rafters. Our sloping brackets enable you to install rafters at 9 different angles, with options to secure the wood at each end with complementary "Mate" brackets. Framola™ Pergola Cross X-Bracket (3 Sizes Available) This is one of our Framola Straight Brackets, it is used to secure 5 pieces of wood at the cross-sections of a multi-bay Pergola structure. Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to build quite a few shed roofs, and no two are ever the same.I take the ridge beam and lay it on the top plate of one side of the wall, then mark the edge of the ridge beam just where I’ve marked the top plate. Toenailing is one of the more straightforward methods of attaching rafters or trusses to the top plate, while hurricane ties offer superior strength to ensure your roof stays where it belongs. Since the hips connect diagonally to the ridge board, the rafters close the edges of walls on either side of the hip rafters will be shorter. You’ll use the same type of connectors you used on the other rafters, except that you’ll cut one wing off – the one on the exterior shed side. Transcript: Installation Guidance for Infinity Galvanised Steel, Copper, and Zinc Guttering Top-Fix Rafter Brackets – for properties with no fascia board.

Use three nails for 2×4 chords, two on one side and one on the other, and four nails for 2×6 chords, two on each side. This means lifting and placing an object that can weigh hundreds of pounds depending on the size of the roof you are constructing. You can’t just use any size of wood you have sitting around for rafters – consult rafter span tables to see what size of wood you can use.As with a deck joist hanger, there are designated nail holes, making the installation process somewhat foolproof. TimberLOK 6-inch long screws secure your rafter to the top plate by driving a screw at an angle from the joint between the wall stud and top plate, through the top plate and into the rafter. The Galvanised steel will ensure excellent resistance to corrosion when used outside in Pergola structures. Fit the gutter lengths into the brackets and fold over the brackets’ two ‘tabs’ to secure the gutter in place. Framola™ Extra Strong Timber Rafter Bracket Suitable for 6" x 6" Timber The Indoor Outdoors Rafter Bracket is suitable for any 6" deep timber.

This side rafter bracket is generally used on properties where there is no fascia board at the eaves (often referred to as open eaves).This total span is well within the load capacity of 2×4 rafters, but how far apart can we space the rafters? The bottom cord should rest squarely onto the top plate, making attaching the truss a comparatively simple process.
