Our Free/Standard delivery options are to be delivered up to a certain date (as per your order) between 8am-5pm. However, you do not need to be at your shipping address every day. We will contact you 24-48 hours before delivering.

Our Fast Track and Next Day services come with a guaranteed 5 hour timeslot and a call 30-60 minutes prior to arrival.

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee a delivery timeslot or pre-delivery call for free or standard services (due to 3rd party couriers) but you can request this by replying to your order confirmation, we will confirm if this can be added.

You can use our lintel finder to assist you.

We have a technical department that can assist – please call us and ask for lintel technical.

Our manufacturers also have great technical departments that can assist as below;

Catnic Technical – 02920 337900

Stressline Technical – 01455 272457

Installation should always be inline with the manufacturers guidelines. If you are in doubt as to the structural performance or suitability of a lintel then please contact the manufacturers technical department before ordering/installation.

Each lintel is different but most steel lintels should be propped at 1.2m ctrs and not removed until the mortar has cured.

Minimum recommended end bearing = 150mm. The lintel should be bedded on mortar and levelled both along the lintel and across its width. Full bricks, blocks or padstones should be used as bearing areas. Do not bear onto cut blocks.

All external wall lintels MUST be installed with a flexible damp proof course (DPC) or cavity tray. In the case of cavity walls the cavity tray should extend not less than 50mm beyond the cavity return.

Inner and outer leaves supported by lintels should be raised together to avoid excessive eccentricity of loading.

Masonry must not overhand any flange by more than 25mm.

Masonry above the lintel should be allowed to cure before applying floor or roof loads.

Further guidance can be found in the manufacturer’s literature.

No, we manufacture our own version of CXL style Extreme Load lintels in every cavity size (50,90,110,130,150mm) from 0750mm – 6000mm long.

We can manufacture any length greater than this if required.

Please note: these items are cut to length from longer stock profiles. Once cut these items are non-returnable and the order cannot be cancelled.

Our lintel range is the largest in the UK amongst any manufacturer.

We offer the equivalent lintel codes on each of our product pages and provide the loading data of our lintels for cross checking against other manufacturers items. Our lintels are the equivalent in function for each product code, there are often small differences in each manufacturers technical loading data, therefore please check the product specification table for the specific product against your alternative manufacturers code prior to ordering.

Our own brand lintels are

• BSI Quality Assurance Accreditation to ISO 9001
• BS EN ISO 9001

For further assistance please view https://uklintels.com/technical-data/

You will find our loading tables at the bottom of the item page.

To understand what the tables mean, you can go to our technical page.

You can request this via the My Account section. However, please note many items in our range are cut from longer length stock profiles. These items are non-returnable and the order cannot be cancelled once the cutting has taken place. These items are therefore bespoke items to your selected length. You will receive a notification about this post purchase. Please contact us immediately to put you order on hold or cancel should you possibly wish to return an item post purchase. Our team can assist in notifying you if the items on your order are cut or non cut items. We can also inform you of this prior to you making an order should you require.
