Framing Square 16in x 24in Aluminium Dual Scale

A framing square in a larger 16in x 24in format, used for marking out timber with clear, dependable lines. Built with an aluminium body and dual scales, it gives you a practical square for set-out work where accuracy matters across longer edges and wider sections.

Used for roofing, framing and general carpentry, this type of square is handy when marking rafters, checking angles and laying out repeated measurements before cutting. It suits site carpentry, workshop timber jobs, garage use and DIY repairs where a small square can feel limiting. When working on larger boards or longer cuts, the extended edge helps with straighter marking and more consistent layout work.

The 16in x 24in size gives you more reach than a compact bench square, which is useful for setting out bigger timber sections and repeated lines across boards. Aluminium construction keeps the square practical for regular handling without adding unnecessary weight, while the dual scales make it easier to read measurements to suit the job in front of you. For regular marking, checking and layout work, having a larger square close to hand helps keep timber work straightforward and consistent.
