    Probably not going to get much cheaper than that in your link depending on postage. These look similar in Goodwins for €1.14 each when buying that quantity:

    They seem ideal fair play , I googled around couldn’t find them! Timber I have is slightly smaller than 3x2 I wonder are those hangers very big for that size timber , do you know ? Not good at working out dimensions !!!

    Should be about right and as close as you'll get without making them. Timber is very annoying as 3x2 is rarely the same from different suppliers. The last few lengths of 3x2 I got were 70x42 square but prior to that they were 75x45 rounded. If your 3x2s are much narrower than 44mm then there may be some play but the brackets should flex somewhat so take that into account before drilling the holes in the wall.

    Sound. I have battens on house wall and side entrance .. I want to cover it Over. I was going to use these to keep the bridges level well as best as possible I think all timber is a bit warped ! Doesn’t help ! Cheers
