Environmentally Sound,
Lifetime Surface for Your Dock

Designed For Compliance With
The Clean Marina
Program's Best Management Practices
Our steel decking design delivers an ultra strong,
environmentally-friendly decking surface with a life expectancy of up
to 50 years that requires near zero maintenance under even the
toughest fresh and saltwater conditions.
Designed For Durability, Safety And Comfort
At the core is 14-gauge virgin steel combined with 35% recycled
steel. On its surface is a field-proven weather resistant PVC coating that
is textured to provide an all-season slip resistant deck.
Additionally,
panels are perforated for fast run off of surface water, snow and
ice; to dissipate lift pressure from storms and turbulent water action; and
provide light penetration from above. And the insulating properties of the
PVC coating leave the surface cool to bare feet even in the heat of the
Arizona sun.
Unmatched Panel Strength With Flexible Panel Sizes
Steel deck panels accommodate stringers spans of 24"(60.96 cm) on center while
supporting up to 2915 lbs/ft2 / 1322.2 kg/m2. Where building codes allow, new
dock construction cost may be reduced significantly with these greater
spans.
With seven
standard rectangular panel sizes ranging from 24" x 48" to 48" x 72"(60.96x121.92
to 121.92x182.88 cm)and a
45 degree corner, Steel deck panels make your decking projects fast and easy.
Panels can be cut with conventional tools to fit around pilings and roof
supports. Exposed steel is simply re-coated using a patch tube of the same
PVC product that air dries quickly to form a complete waterproof seal.
Steel Decking Is An
Environmentally-Friendly,
Cost Saving Solution
For Your Docks
The expected life of a steel decking panel is 40 to 50 years. This far exceeds the
15 year life expectancy, or less, of other decking
materials that will need to be replaced two or three times during
that same period. And ongoing maintenance is near-zero. So steel deck not
only protects you against the cost of multiple re-decking projects and
regular maintenance costs, but it also saves on landfill and recycling
charges common with other decking types. A marina or dock system with
steel deck is truly a clean marina
Panels Install 6X Faster Than Other Decking
Steel decking can be installed typically in 1/6 the time of traditional
decking materials and without the waste common from cutting wood
and composite decking. Waste that you are paying for.
Panels can be attached to dock frames through pre-drilled mounting holes with as few as four TEK screws on steel
or aluminum frames. With some dock frames and building code compliance
panels may be laid in place without fasteners. In either case panels can be
removed or lifted easily for access to under dock utility runs.
Panels can also be cut to fit around pilings, roof supports and other
obstructions. Any exposed steel edges can then be coated using the
PVC vinyl patch kit that comes with your shipment. And
with panel widths of 2', 3' and 4'(60.96, 91.44, 121.92 cm) and panel lengths of 4', 5' and 6'(121.92,
152.4, 182.88 cm), you'll be surprised with how fast your new deck can be installed.
Steel Decking Can Add Strength to New or Old Dock Frames
Whether you are resurfacing existing dock frames or new frames, steel
deck can become a structural member of your dock
system when fastened to your frames at all points of connection that are provided in the
steel deck panel.
Field-Tested PVC Coating and Perforations
Provide Safe Slip-Resistant Surface
Actually it's better than that! Steel
decking's slip-resistant PVC coating is
KID-tested. This is the same PVC material and coating process that has been
used on commercial-grade playground equipment for over 20 years. No better
test than a couple hundred kids at recess every day. Steel deck is also
perforated for fast run-off of surface water, snow and ice; and to minimize
the lifting effects of wave splashes and surges from under the dock.
And the perforations let light penetrate to the vegetation and aquatic life
residing under the dock. |

Easy to Install and Easy Access to Utilities Post Install
Under dock utilities can be difficult to access and time
consuming with some decking products. Steel decking panels can be
lifted easily to expose a larger area under the decking for any
utility work needed.
Easy to Install
Panels are easy to cut to fit around pilings, power pedestals,
roof supports and other walkway obstructions. Vinyl patch can be
applied to freshly cut edges to seal them against weather and
water.
