What Decking Fixings Do I Need?

Carpenters Mate deck screws are installed with a cordless drill. A free drill bit is provided with every box. The screws are screwed straight into the timber. Pre-drilling may be suggested, however, for the ends of deck boards and for use with hardwood. This is to help prevent splitting.

Carpenters Mate deck screws are a high quality screw with a galvanised and coated finish to prevent the screw from rusting. The square drive, counter sunk head and free drill bit to suit helps prevent slipping and burring of the screw head.

Two screws per joist is suggested.
