Assembly of wooden decks

Classical versus Modern:
A new installation system competes with conventional screwing. We will present both options to you.

Classic laying

With the classic assembly, you create the connection between the supporting wood and the cover boards with screws, which you put through the board surface. Die Crux: The screw heads remain visible on the surface, So you have to set them very precisely, so that a clean screw pattern is created. Another downside: You must use stainless steel screws on all woods, so that the boards do not turn black at the screw points when wet. In addition, in some woods such as Bangkirai, other types of screws would simply be too soft.

1 Die Traghölzer, which you mount at right angles to the subsequent laying direction of the cover boards, dowel in concrete slabs. pre-drilling!

2 Be sure to, that the supporting timbers do not run over the joints of the concrete slabs. The maximum distance between the timbers is 50 cm.

3 Bevor Sie die Edelstahlschrauben setzen, you must pre-drill the screw holes with the screw diameter. Be careful when tightening the screws: If there is too much torque, they will break.

Laying with a system

The system wooden deck is also screwed heavily, but in contrast to classic laying, not through the deck boards. The secret: Zwischen den

Small black plastic parts do the work of holding the boards. The boards are milled on the edges like this, that the trapezoidal clips do not just wedge them when screwing, but also at the right distance, say bring joint. The advantages: Not a single screw head can be seen on the deck surface, and the boards can work lengthwise – the danger, that they tear, decrease.

1 Unter den Längsstößen der Deckbretter verlegen Sie zwei Traghölzer, so that both board heads lie flat and can be fixed.

2 Die Clips fixieren Sie mit zwei Schrauben im Tragholz. Be sure to pre-drill in hard woods such as Bang-kirai.

3 Das nächstfolgende Deckbrett ziehen Sie jeweils mittels Zwingen oder Klemmen dicht an die montierten Clips heran und verschrauben davor die nächsten Clips.

4 Am letzten Deckbrett der Fläche haben Sie für die Clips in der Regel kein „Fleisch“ mehr auf den Traghölzern. Here you put the screws through the groove side of the boards.
