Decking Joists & Frames

We recommend that the notches are fixed with one 90mm screw in each notched joint. Code 809490 packet of 10.

Only our standard decking boards can be used as fascias for notched frame decks and NOT our heavy duty decking boards as the joists are the same dimensions as our standard boards. Heavy duty decking boards can be used on decks but not as decking fascias.

If any boards or joists have been cut then the edges need to be treated with our Jakcure end grain preservative to avoid rot and insect attack and also to keep your warranty valid.

Notched decking joists come in lengths of 3.550m and 1.750m. Remember a joist of 3.550 with two 25mm thick decking boards attached as facias to either end will create a deck length of 3.6m. It is important that simple decking joists are only be used on a level solid base the same as our decking kits.

If you require a deck that is raised, on a slope or does not have a flat solid base such as concrete then our standard decking products should be used.
