The Simpson Strong-Tie DHU Face-Mount Fire Wall Hanger is designed for structurally supporting joist floor loads that bear on wood stud walls with two layers of 5/8" gypsum board. It’s a smart solution for framing situations that require a fire-rated assembly—especially in multi-family or light commercial projects. Installed after the drywall is in place, the DHU saves time while ensuring fire-resistance compliance without compromising structural integrity.
This hanger is available in multiple widths and can be ordered with one concealed flange or skewed up to 45°, giving contractors the flexibility to meet project-specific layout needs. Whether you're working with plated trusses, solid sawn lumber, or engineered wood, the DHU delivers versatile, code-compliant performance in demanding construction environments.
Key Features:
Fire-Rated Performance: Designed for use on two-hour fire-rated wall assemblies, tested for use with both 2x4 and 2x6 wall construction.
Flexible Installation: Can be installed after drywall, and configured with concealed flanges or skewed up to 45° as needed.
Material Versatility: Compatible with plated trusses, solid sawn lumber, and engineered wood joists.
Installation:
Hanger must be installed after drywall is applied to the wall assembly.
