Decent merchant to buy metal brackets in bulk - UK

[JohnBishop]

Hi again,

  I hope you are well.
Do you know of any decent online merchants I can order good metal brackets (e.g. angle, flat plates) in bulk? I don't necessarily trust the quality when buying from eBay.

I know this stuff is available at Wickes or Screwfix but if possible I prefer to support organic business if you know what I mean.
I am going to check a local ironmonger to see if they have what I need and it's not too pricey.

Please advise anyway.

Someone has recommended https://directchannel.uk.com
for metal stuff like bolts and nuts but I don't see them having angle brackets.

P.S.
What I am worried about is that many of these local merchants they don't really look much different from the nationwide chains, they are all like clones of each other with pretty much the same stuff. None of them e.g. specialise in metal stuff but have pretty much a little bit of everything.

I use either:

 

https://www.tcfixings.co.uk/home

 

or

 

https://www.metrofixings.co.uk/

 

I've always been able to source the metalwork/brackets and other fixings as specificied by structural engineers from both these companies and Metro are efficient if they don't have stock and need ordering.

 

HTH.
