Why Risk This??
Five people were injured in June 2006 when a deck collapsed in Upper Marlboro, MD during a funeral reception. Ten people were on the deck at the time, one adult was underneath the deck during the collapse.
Current deck fastening techniques rely on resistance to "pullout" force... like using a nail to hold a crowbar. The DeckLok Bracket System creates stronger deck connections by redirecting the force of the load from "pullout" to a connection in "shear" at the deck floor joist. By adding DeckLok Brackets to your current construction methods, your deck will meet or exceed IRC Requirements.
Because of the terrific acceptance of the DeckLok Bracket System for attaching railings to decks and deck ledger boards to houses, the company has introduced the new RailLok, a mini version of the original DeckLok. RailLok is just as rugged as the full size bracket, but at half the size.This is because the DeckLok Bracket System offers all of the following benefits:
- It redirects force to prevent "pull out" from occurring
- It meets or exceeds IRC requirements
- It can be used to connect railings to decks, and decks to ledger boards
- Available in 316 stainless steel, as well as white or black powder coat finish
Alternatively, RailLok decking fasteners offer all of the same benefits as the Decklok Bracket System, but these smaller versions are just half the size of the DeckLok fasteners.
These rugged decking fasteners are used to connect rail sections to posts at either a 90 degree platform or as a saddle. All you do is attach the brackets to the rail post with #10 screws and follow the easy installation instructions. After the deck fasteners are in place, you can count on them to outlast the rest of your deck.
