STARTING BOARD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Secure the first deck board along the wall\/edge using the provided Torx screws. Pre-drill with a 3\/16\" bit and space screws every 16–24 inches. Counter-sink the screws 3\/8\" deep and seal the holes with the included hardwood plugs. \u003cem\u003e(For composite boards, do not pre-drill; run the screw 1\/8\" below the surface and hammer the fibers over it).\u003c\/em\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003e2.

LOCKING \u0026amp; SPACING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    Slide the next deck board halfway onto the exposed clips. Tighten the screws until the aluminum clip slightly bows downward (approx. 2\/3 clutch capacity on most drills) to lock it rigid. Use a mallet and a 3\/8\" temporary spacer to tap the board into perfect alignment. Repeat until the final board, which is face-screwed and plugged just like the first.\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wood Haven","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43856640016462,"sku":"101490","price":199.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/1831\/0222\/files\/1000016101.jpg?v=1781195721","url":"https:\/\/deckoutlet.ca\/products\/ipe-aluminum-deck-clips","provider":"Deck Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
