Sash Clamps

[chim_knee]

Hello,

I'm after 4 * 1000-1200mm sash clamps (don't have to all be the same length) BUT I need ones that can be joined together to make a longer clamp. I'd rather spend a little as possible, but does anyone know of a place to get them?

I seem to remember someone on here owns a tool shop site but I can't for the life of me remember who!

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks,
Phil.

Screwfix have some 1200mm ones for ~30 quid. Looks like you could bolt two together through the locking holes...

What you want are some pipe clamps..


Buy yourselve a couple of these and some of this and bob's your uncle.

The pipe might be cheaper to pick up at a plumbers place.

I've got a couple of these and they're great - any length you want - just keep adding pipe.

Just don't buy ANYTHING (from a PHer or otherwise) that has the dread word DRAPER on it...

Get some flat steel stock. Drill some holes at the appropriate places and attach a sash cramp to each end.

I made some odd sized doors for the front of the deck in my garden.
The ones I used came at hire rates from HSS.
I think they have a website.

Where are you? I got a couple of 1200mm ones for 15 quid a piece a couple of years back. I think HSS hire them BTW

Hi Guys - thanks for the replies.

I'm in Hertfordshire, nonegreen - so a bit too far!

I hadn't considered hiring them (I only want them of a one off job - an odd-sized door infact). I'll check out HSS.

Cheers
Phil.
