Timber frame kits in Ayrshire
Made in our Dalry factory and delivered to sites across North, South and East Ayrshire — open panel timber frame kits, roof trusses and mid-floor joists for house builders, developers and self-builders.
Your local timber frame manufacturer
Ayrshire is home for Core Timber Systems. Our factory is at Unit 1, Capital Business Park in Dalry, North Ayrshire, and that is where our team makes the wall panels, roof trusses and mid-floor joists for every kit we supply.
For an Ayrshire build, that means your frame is made a short distance from your plot, by a local team who have worked as joiners and site managers themselves. If you'd like to see where your kit will be made, factory visits are available by appointment.

Whether you are pricing a multi-plot site in Irvine or Kilmarnock or a handful of plots in a village, we price repeat house types together and supply the frame, roof and floors from one factory in the county.

Self-build enquiryDelivered from Dalry, wrapped or unwrapped
Kits for Ayrshire sites travel from our Dalry factory to your plot. Coastal sites from Largs down to Girvan can be exposed to the weather, so you can ask for your kit packs to be wrapped in Core-branded wrap so no moisture is added in transit — or have them delivered unwrapped if you prefer.

Good to know before you order
- Planning permission and building warrants here are handled by North Ayrshire Council, East Ayrshire Council and South Ayrshire Council. Your architect or designer normally prepares the applications.
- Your own structural engineer prepares the building warrant structural design; we manufacture to it. We don't provide foundation or setting-out drawings, or foundation loadings.
- Kits are supply only, delivered ready for your own erector, builder or joiner.
- Typical lead time is around 6 weeks, and we aim to respond to enquiries within 3 working days.
