FAQs

What are steel purlins used for?

Steel purlins are used to support roof and wall cladding in steel frame buildings. They help transfer loads from the cladding back to the main structural frame, providing strength, stability, and a reliable framework for a wide range of building types.

Do you supply both Z and C purlin profiles?

Yes, we stock both Z and C profiles fabricated from cold-rolled steel. Each profile is suited to different structural needs and cladding setups. If you’re unsure which is right for your project, our team can talk you through the options.

Can I get timber purlins from you as well?

Absolutely. We also supply green tanalised timber purlins in various sizes. They’re a solid choice for customers who prefer timber or for jobs where a traditional material is more suitable.

Are your purlins compatible with different cladding types?

They are. Our steel purlins come with a wide range of compatible accessories and are designed to work with most common cladding types used in agricultural, industrial, commercial and domestic buildings.

Can I collect my purlins, or do you deliver?

Both options are available. You can collect your order from our Caenby Corner site, or we can arrange local delivery. Just let us know what works best for you when you place your order.

Do you offer advice if I’m not sure what I need?

Yes, we do. Whether you’re a homeowner tackling a one-off build or a contractor with years in the trade, our team is always happy to offer straightforward advice to help you get exactly what you need.
