InstallationStep 4 - Cut nose pieces to length

Hint: This should be 40mm greater than the length of the slat (A)

Step 5 - Cut outside end of nose pieces on 45 degree angle

Hint: If your decking is seen by less than 2 sides, you will not need to complete this step.

Step 6 - Mount starter piece to wall or joistPlace the Starter piece to the back of the joist or to the front face of the wall. Screw down as shown below.


InstallationStep 7 - Place, lock and screw in first decking piece

Step 8 - Repeat Step 7 until the required width is achieved

Place the decking length and click it into the starter piece. Once in place, fix the decking down with a ‘se-crete’ screw which will be covered by the next decking piece.

Hint: If working between posts, you can cut out pieces of the new decking without affecting the flow of the deck.

Once the last piece of decking is laid, place the nose capping over the outer edge of the deck-ing. This will create a nice finish to the edge of the deck and will cover the outside piece.


InstallationStep 9 - Mount nose capping

Hint: if the deck is seen on all edges, you can frame the deck witha nose piece the entire way around.

if the decking area is large, you can place a length down and use a T-joiner section to join the deck together to create a large span.

Vertical risers can be attached in standard Aliwood slats to hide timber joists.
