Q. How are they installed?
A. The process is similar to tongue and groove floor boards except the fasteners have a back to back tongue while the boards require a back to back groove created on site with a biscuit cutter or have your timber supplier pre groove your deck boards for you.
Q. How long will they last?
A. Fasteners will last for over 100 years.
Q. What size are the gaps?
A. The AD-006 provides a 6mm gap.
A. The AD-003 provides a 3mm gap.
Q. Why can't the AD-003 be used on steel joists?
A. The AD-003 provides a 3mm gap between deck boards which requires the screw to be driven in on a 45 degree angle. This makes it difficult to pre drill and drive into steel joists.
Q. What tools do I need?
A. Typical carpentry tools are required to build any deck project however, when installing our fasteners you will also need a biscuit cutter/ joiner with a 4mm cutting blade, cordless drill and a caulking gun.
Q. How long does it take to install?
A. It will take around the same time if you were to pre drill and screw down your decking.
Q. What type of decking should I use?
A. Your choice of decking is very important. Archideck Hidden Deck Fasteners are designed for kiln dried hardwood decking and solid composite decking.
