How to Utilize the Deck Accessories in Appropriate Spaces

Patio and decks are some of the most important additions that can be made to your home. All these additions are designed for improved appearance and lifestyle. There are many accessories available to make these spaces as livable as other indoor rooms. The use of patio and deck accessories enhances the appearance of the deck design. During the design and building phase, you can use the following deck accessories for your patio or deck:

1. Railing Connectors:

Fortress railing connectors are the professional deck accessory which is used to attach sub-rails to posts. There are 2 types of rail connectors that can be used:

Standard connectors for stair rails and regular railing.

Angle connectors used around bay windows or where your railing juts out.

2. UV Protecting Finisher:

The use of UV protector can help you reduce the graying of your deck. There are also some other UV protection liquids available which can protect the deck.

3. Wax Emulsion:

Wax in wood decks is used for cut ends to reduce checking and to protect the ends.

4. Deck Clip:

Deck clip installation is preferred over nails because they simply hold better. You can choose stainless steel screws, which will not stain your beautiful decking.

5. Ipe Clip Extreme:

The Ipe clip extreme is made up of stainless steel covered with plastic to blend in with the wood color. This Ipe clip is installed by driving a screw through the hole in the clip at a 45 degree angle and through the board thereby holding the board from moving as the board shrinks slightly. Most installers find it easier to pre-drill a hole in the board so that they can drive the screw more easily. This pre-drilling to install the Ipe clip is an extra step that some prefer to avoid.

6. Brazilian Hardwood Plugs:

A Smart-Bit plug driller is recommended if you want a clean cut and want to avoid a pre-drill. With a touch of glue you may insert plug and screw it for a good finishing. After the glue dries use a chisel to remove the excess which is just above the decking just to ensure that the plug does not protrude above the decking surface.

After building your deck, you can also add post caps, lighting, fire pits and so forth. The accessories options are endless. I will be outlining them in a future article.
