Lateral Restraints

Lateral restraints are wall ties used for restraining bulging walls.

Lateral restraints are fitted from outside the property with a minimum of disturbance - in most cases just lift a few floorboards to determine the position of the joists and to ensure wires or pipes that may be hidden are avoided during tie installation.

Each Lateral restraint tie has a drill like leading end for cutting into softwood. Using a drill, simply wind the lateral restraint ties into the timbers and resin fix the masonry end.
