Colour Match Composite Deck Screws

These epoxy coated steel screws are used to install the square edge deck boards for a traditional face-fix. They are colour matched and come in three colours: Dark Brown (for use with Vintage Lantern, Lava Rock and Spiced Rum), Grey (for use with Gravel Path, Island Mist and Pebble Grey) and Light Brown (for use with Tiki Torch and Torino Brown).

Deckfast® Fascia Screws

These colour match screws are designed to accommodate the expansion and contraction that can occur with fascia boards. They are installed using the pre-drilling fascia tool which is available separately – see below.

Deckfast® Fascia Tool

The pre-drilling deckfast® tool creates an over-sized hole for the fascia screw, so that the fascia board hangs from the screw and can expand and contract without putting a large amount of force on the fastener.

Trex groove cutter

Groove Cutter

Trex square edge boards require traditional screws for installation. However, a Trex hideaway groove cutter can be used to route a groove into the side of any traditional board to accommodate the hidden fastening system. This is ideal for starter boards and steps.
