Timber Gable Enabled

Timber gable enabled

Off-site built timber gable panels can be installed in less time than blockwork, however - how do you ensure the same level of resistance to wind loads? 

The gable panel connector (GPC) is a rapid solution for connecting the gable panel system into the blockwork. Alongside vertical and horizontal restraint straps, lateral wind loads are safely transferred from the gable end into the roof structure. It's as easy as GPC.

  • Fast - no masonry fasteners required - GPC sits directly onto blockwork.
  • Flexible - use on 100mm, 115mm or 140mm wall thickness.
  • Installation options for raised and continuous wall plates.
