Below Surface Fixing Due to the excellent below surface fixing system, no screws or nails need to be used through the decking surface. The result is a decking without screw or nail heads working loose on the walking surface. Therefore dangers of injury when walking barefoot are eliminated.

General Information Dura Deck composite decking boards are produced with a hollow core centre which creates exceptional strength and lightness. Every board has a recess moulded into each edge which accepts a heavy duty hold down clip, creating a Below Surface secure fixing, using 8g and 10g stainless steel colour coded screws.
