Mikey Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 A tricky one on site… BC have said we need a 50mm arched cavity lintel above this arched window. Struggling to find a supplier! Anyone else encountered the same problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Punter Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Can you just form the arch in brickwork and use a normal timber frame lintel with cavity tray above? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC inspector wasn't keen on this as a solution over the phone. He's coming out Thursday so I will try again with that solution! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Tried Catnic specials? https://catnic.com/products/lintels/special-lintels Else get a steel fabricator to make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Thanks for all your comments. IG Lintels came up trumps, supplying me with an arch lintel (1360mm SPAN; 600mm RISE) for £260. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
