Installation Guidelines.

Enduradeck specializes in composite decking to suit all types of  residential and commercial properties. We offer quality decking and fencing solutions delivered to  any post code in Australia.

Our decking boards and materials are durable and have a natural resistance to rot, decay and splintering making it a great asset for your outdoor area. Available in wide choice of colours and finishes, our composite decking boards are manufactured using  the best materials available. 
Hidden Fixing
  • The Enduradeck boards are designed to be used with our ABS Plastic or  stainless steel hidden clipping systems. The clips will guarantee a consistent gap between the edges of the boards. Each floor joist requires 1 clip per board.​
Starter Board
  • The first board laid on your new deck is referred to as a starter board. Enduradeck "C" clips are used for starter boards. The "C" clip allows you to accommodate the required 5mm distance from the wall/structure.
Fascia
  • Using the Enduradeck fascia is an ideal way of finishing the edges of your new deck. Pre drilling of the fascia is required prior to fastening.
  • Enduradeck Fascia is available with a brushed finish in all decking colours. 
Double Joists
  • When joining boards using a Butt join, a double side by side joist MUST be installed. Fitting a clip on each joist.
Breaker Board
  • The breaker board method of joining is recommended on long spans instead of butt joining. Using a breaker board will allow for additional board movement.

Enduradeck Decking can be installed with joists directly onto concrete. 
​Joining Clips supplied with either Timbertek or Metaltek screws. Please advise when ordering.
