About our Reclaimed Railway Sleepers
Reclaimed sleepers are ideal where a project requires a more rustic look. They are ideal for a variety of landscaping projects, including retaining walls, edging, and building raised garden beds. Because reclaimed sleepers are likely to have been used for many years on railway tracks and have been treated with creosote, they will still have a very long service life when used in ground contact.
Our used railway sleepers are sourced from trusted suppliers who only deliver Grade A quality. This means that they are essentially sound and square edged. Please remember that as these sleepers are reclaimed there can be quite a large tolerance on the dimensions.
The Timberlok Heavy Duty Woodscrew’s sharp point and aggressive thread is designed to penetrate even the densest woods without the need for pre-drilling. You can buy them
HERE.
Please note that these railway sleepers have been used previously for many decades and therefore may contain fragments of metal and the possibility of markings on the surface of the sleeper.
As per the
EU Directive 2001/90/EC, Creosote treated timber must not be used where there is a risk of frequent skin contact. Always use gloves when handling creosoted products.
