Despite featuring rugged reputations, building and construction are undeniably an art form. From flawless welds to secure, artful solders, creating something new from nothing is an incredible skill. When you’re connecting the pieces in your building project, you have to consider which fastening system will best suit your needs. A poorly matched fastening system can leave components loose and structures unstable. Northland Fastening Systems (NFS) has the tricks and tools you need for any building project, large and small. If you’re looking for the tools and gear to meet your deadlines and create stable, high-quality builds, look no farther than NFS.

The Dangers of Unsuitable Fastening Systems

 Personal Projects

The risk factors associated with unsuitable fastening systems can range from simple annoyances to genuine dangers. Depending on the scale and intent of your building project, a bit of instability may not be the end of the world. Personal projects and builds that are skewed more toward art rather than utility can suffer some defects without total failure. Some signs that your small-scale project has an unsuitable fastening system include—inconsistent fastening quality, poor aesthetics, and total structural failure.

Professional Projects

For large-scale building projects, the same risks apply, but with severe consequences.  Industrial or professional building projects need to have perfectly suiting fastening systems to prevent potential risk to human health. A structural failure or inconsistent weld can result in injury or death, or, at the very least, major financial loss. Whether you’re welding or utilizing any large-scale fastening from bolts to clinches, you absolutely need to ensure that the methods you’re using are suitable and strong.
