{"title":"Joist Hangers","description":"\u003cp\u003eSupport joists and other horizontal framing members with the Joist Hangers collection at FixTimber. Browse face-mount hangers, concealed-flange hangers, angled or skewed connectors, light-duty options, and heavy-duty models for compatible lumber and engineered wood. Joist hangers may be used in suitable floor, ceiling, deck, porch, and framing assemblies when their size, capacity, material, and installation method match the project requirements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach hanger is designed for particular member dimensions, load directions, fastening schedules, and supporting materials. Products may differ in flange configuration, seat depth, metal gauge, corrosion protection, and compatibility with treated lumber or exterior environments. A hanger that appears to fit physically may not provide the required capacity, so selection should be based on published technical information rather than appearance alone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstall the connector level and fully seated against the supporting member. Fill the required fastener holes with the specific connector nails or structural screws approved by the manufacturer, and do not substitute drywall screws or general-purpose fasteners. Never cut, flatten, bend, or enlarge a hanger unless explicitly allowed. Joist hangers cannot restore strength to severely split, rotted, or inadequately supported framing. Floor systems, elevated decks, or other load-bearing assemblies should follow applicable plans and building requirements and may need professional evaluation.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/fixtimber.us\/collections\/joist-hangers.oembed","provider":"FixTimber","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
