Building a deck? Use DeckLok - THE Deck Bracket System for Attaching Decks To Ledgers
Stay Connected With A Lateral Anchor

DeckLok is a patented product that provides a bolt-on connection between your house and your sun deck. It stops catastrophic failure of decks by attaching directly to the house's floor joist!

DeckLok Bracket System Note: The International Residential Code (IRC) now requires the connection to the structure to be designed for both vertical and lateral load. DeckLok does this!

Current building code requires decks to be bolted to the band or rim board of the house. However, the band board was never designed to support another structure such as a deck or sunroom! It may only be end-nailed to the floor joists. Movement (walking, dancing) on the deck causes the nails to pull out, precipitating collapse of the deck.

The DeckLok Advanced Lateral Anchor System is designed to keep this mode of failure from occurring. The lateral anchors are used in tandem, sandwiching the end of the floor joists while bolts secure the deck ledger board (through the band board) to the floor joists. This provides a bolted attachment in a cost effective, easy to install fashion.

Benefits:

Eliminates deck pullout
Inexpensive: replaces second beam, columns and footings
Works in both new construction and retrofit
Avoids personal injuries (and lawsuits) from deck collapse
