Installation Instructions:

Prior to construction, check with your local regulatory agency for special coding requirements in your area.

Recommended Tools: Circular saw (carbide tipped with less than 20 teeth is preferred), carpenter's level, tape measure, corded or cordless drill.

Joist Span: 16-inch center to center joist span is recommended for installation.

Cellek™'s fastener & groove design eliminates pre-drilling and enables faster installation as well. You may fasten the outside edge of the first board to deck with screws. Then from the second board, you can just use Cellek™ fasteners to secure each board onto the joists underneath at the intersection. Cellek™ fastener will automatically maintain an identical spacing between each board. When apply a screw through the fastener, you need to make sure that the screw head is relatively flush with the fastener; and never over tighten screws and bow fasteners. The fastener's long edge must remain parallel to the deck board so the next deck board will fit snugly. Repeat the same process for each board until the outside edge of the last board is fastened with screws. To avoid possible squeaks, deck boards are recommended be glued onto joists with construction adhesive.

The above instructions are just guidelines to help you install Cellek™ deck system. There might be some different situations or factors, which requires expertise and experience of a professional for your specific project. To guarantee a successful installation, consulting with an expert about a project is always recommended.
