Beamlock Connection
Due to the fundamental connection relying on the stainless steel plates and tubes matching up, the moisture changes in the wood do not cause any concern or inhibit the connection system from working efficiently and easily. The Beamlock connection system is made with a combination of high tensile BZP, stainless steel (grade 304L) and aluminium components. The beamlock design is durable and can achieve a service life of a minimum of 60 years in internal dry environments and a minimum of 30 years for external exposure.
Installation Advantages
Two people can easily build a Beamlock structure with minimal tools and skills. Simple assembly means that you will benefit from the unique time saving design reducing timberframe build times and labour costs.
Weight and Construction Advantages
Beamlock is a safe site product providing strength at easily managed weights. Posts and beams are supplied in easily transportable modular lengths to a maximum of 5m. There is no need for a crane or multi lift as two people can handle all components. Typically, on a 4m span, the Beamlock components weigh just 48kg.

Extendable
The system allows easy extension at any time from a Beamlock post, allowing your buildings to grow with your needs and budget. Great for turning Beamlock car ports into Beamlock garages, or carports into stables, as your needs grow.
Last Minute Changes
With such a flexible system, you can decide on brace position suitable for garage doors, patio doors or windows just before you put the building together.
Adjustable Post Base Plate
The Beamlock System includes a comprehensive and unique post to ground fixing solution.
This specially engineered base plate is designed to maximise full support up to 10 tons (tension pulling strength 1.3 tons) and at the same time positively fix the post to the ground below. An additional benefit is the 60mm of height of the base plate for an over-site that may not be level, an ideal solution, especially in garages and stable where frequent washing occurs.
We have carefully selected post length and thought about beam dimensions to made sure that they are appropriate to fit with standard doors, windows, patio doors, garage doors, patio frames, garage frames etc.
