Is Your Deck Safe?

What is the DeckLok Bracket System?

decklok pdfDeckLok is a bracket system that secures deck components to the structure of the deck in a way that is revolutionizing the deck industry. This patented bracket system strengthens the vulnerable connections between deck components by adding a bolted attachment at critical structural locations.

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.

The DeckLok Bracket System provides the strength required to meet or exceed IRC 2006 Safety Code requirements for both lateral pullout and rail post stability while using your current deck construction techniques and designs.

The bracket is available in ACQ compatible galvanized coating and in 304 or 316 Stainless Steel.

The Advantage: One DeckLok bracket = 500% increase in rail post strength, two DeckLok brackets = 4,000 lbs of ledger board pullout resistance!

Easily install rail sections with RailLok!

raillokBecause 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. RailLok is being used to connect rail sections to the post, either as a 90’ platform or as a saddle. Attach the brackets to the rail post using timber lags and then slip preassembled railing sections into the brackets and screw them in place. The RailLok brackets provide a strong, reliable railing to post connection. The fasteners are built to outlast the service life of the deck. RailLok is available in 316 Stainless Steel and white or black powder coat finish. More info | Order Now
