- Composite Decking Boards – These are the actual planks to lay over the joists to create your decking. We sell these in 2.44m and 3.66m lengths.
- Hidden Fasteners – These are used to connect the boards together and provide a seamless hidden join (hence the name). These come in bags of 60.
- Decking Board Screws – These are used to screw the decking boards into the underlying joist structure. They are currently available in bags of 100.
- Composite Joists – These recycled plastic joists are used to help construct the underlying structure. The decking boards sit on top and are secured using hidden fasteners and board screws.
- Decking Balustrade – This is used to create a railing system around the decking and is offered in various sections (inner and outer). These sections can then be joined together to make a larger handrail system for your decking area.
