Hidden fasteners for composite decking
A stronger way to fasten your deck without using surface fixings Contact a decking specialistA few reasons fasten your deck with hidden fixings
As an effective means to securing your composite decking for the best final finish and faster installation, hidden fasteners are an attractive solution.
Increasingly, the traditional method of fastening through the decking boards is becoming replaced with hidden fastening methods.
Fastening your deck with screws or nails, creates a few potential issues. Aside from the longer term risk of increasing the incidence of raised or cracked boards, popped nails or deterioration at the fixing site, in many cases, it also slows the installation time.
For a number of these reasons, Deck-Max has carefully sourced and created a range of hidden fastening solutions, for composite and timber decking alike. By using a good quality solution for hidden fastening, your deck will have improved appearance, fixing strength and last longer. Deck-Max can also show you how using hidden fastening can enable you to improve installation times for your project, saving valuable labour hours.
How hidden fasteners work
Your composite boards from Deck-Max are manufactured with specially designed grooves. This allows the hidden fasteners to attach into the side of each board, providing a strong attachment to the sub-frame. As this actually increases the surface area connected, the hidden fasteners enable high load ratings to be achieved, exceeding those of surface fixing methods.
For the various types of fixing required in the installation of your deck, a specially designed faster is use to match the attachment being made. This system improves both installation time and quality, as board spacing is assisted by use of the appropriate fasteners.
Of further advantage to the labour required, is that the need to pre-drill boards is eliminated from the installation process.
After installation, your fasteners are forever out of sight
