We also have a range of Cordless Auto Feed Screwdriver Hire available. Ideal for dry lining and decking applications and designed for applications with heavy driving/high torque.

Nail Gun Hire - We offer a selection of 1st Fix and 2nd fix nail guns. The key difference between first fix and second fix nail guns is that 1st fix nail guns are more powerful machines that use larger nails for heavy duty framing applications. First fix nail guns - also referred to as framing nailers; typically leave some dents in the wood, yet this does not really matter because the purpose of the job is not aesthetic, as the work will not really be visible. Whilst Second fix nail guns - also referred to as finishing nailers and brad nailers; are slightly more delicate and refined pieces of equipment that use smaller nails for a range of ‘finishing’ applications. The results of this work are more visible, so second fix nail guns typically use finishing nails or brad nails, which are thin and have very small or no heads. This means that they cause less splitting in the wood and give a more refined finish.

We have a great range of professional standard Fixing Equipment Hire products as well as Nail Guns for hire.
