The UKLintels 200mm Galvanised Steel External Solid Wall Box Lintel is designed for professional builders and contractors requiring a heavy-duty structural support solution for 200-215mm solid wall constructions. It excels in providing robust load-bearing capacity for diverse elements like masonry and steel beams, though its substantial weight requires mechanical assistance or multiple personnel for safe installation.

No, this specific model is engineered exclusively for solid wall applications between 200mm and 215mm.
The galvanised finish provides inherent corrosion protection, so painting is not strictly necessary unless for aesthetic reasons.
A minimum end bearing of 150mm is recommended on both sides to ensure proper load distribution.
Yes, the 19:1 load ratio makes it suitable for supporting concrete floors, masonry, and floor joists.
The product is manufactured from heavy-duty, galvanised steel.
Use a long spirit level and ensure the underlying masonry bed is perfectly flat before setting the lintel.
Verify that the end bearing supports are fully cured and meet the minimum 150mm overlap requirement.
Installation of the SL200 requires standard masonry practices, ensuring the lintel has a minimum end bearing of 150mm on each side of the opening. It is crucial to level the lintel during the bedding process to prevent uneven load distribution. For long-term care, ensure that the damp-proof course (DPC) is correctly installed above the lintel to prevent moisture from bridging into the inner leaf of the wall. Since the component is galvanised steel, avoid using abrasive cleaners that could strip the coating; if the surface is scratched during installation, applying a zinc-rich cold galvanising spray can restore the protective barrier.
