Saige Composite Hollow Decking Boards Installation Guide

Dimensions

Boards: 140mm x 20mm x 3.6m lengths. Coverage is just under 2 boards per square metre.

Note: the boards will fade by approximately 10%-15% after installation within the first 2-3 months. After this the colour pigments stabilise.

Why choose SAiGE composite decking?

• Made from approximately 90% recycled materials – a unique combination of wood fibres and plastic from reclaimed or recycled resources which are highly screened prior to manufacture


• Child-friendly – no splinters, hidden fixings, free of toxic additives


• Low maintenance


• Low slip potential


• Easy to cut and install – no need for pre-treatment and cuts like wood

Use one bag hollow board fixing clips per 4 boards.

Storage

• Storage: SAiGE Longlife decking is generally denser than natural wood. On site, it must be stored on a flat surface and must be supported by centres at 60cm intervals. Storing on uneven surface might cause the boards to twist. The decking should be covered for long term storage.


• Tools: No specialist tools are required but for the best results, we recommend using circular saw blades with few teeth (e.g. 8-24, on a 45 cm blade).


• Fixings: We recommend using 4 x 30 mm (minimum) corrosion resistant self-tapping screws as supplied within the fixing kit for use with our hidden fixing clips. If using a power tool, we advise to adjust the tool so that the screws are not over tightened.


• Decking foundations: Please consult your structural engineer for design specifications for an appropriate sub-floor for your structure. Make sure the foundation is flat and stable in order to avoid deformation and dents in the surface and of the terrace. Always maintain the indicated mounting distance. Make sure that all joists are level and centred. The decking must span at least three joists.
