Traditional hidden installation

Hidden fasteners for professionals

The hardWood Clip™ hidden fastening system meets the recommendations and requirements defined by the experts on wood deck board fasteners.*

  • Screwing down of the board onto the joist, like in a traditional installation
  • SPAX® screw with toe fillet for self-clamping of board to joist
  • Screws and metal fastener components made of very high-quality A2 stainless steel
  • Spacer integrated into the fastener for automatic and even spacing between boards
  • Different spacer thicknesses available for board spacing based on the wood's moisture content at the time of installation
  • Board reversibility to select the optimum board face (smooth or grooved if the board has both finishes) due to the symmetrical groove-cutting profile
  • Bowed boards can be installed
  • Single boards can be replaced
  • Greater durability of the wood deck compared to an installation with visible screws (due to the elimination of multiple water retention points on the surface)
*particularly those defined in the ‘Guide de Conception et de Réalisation des Terrasses en Bois’ (Guide to Wood Deck Design and Construction).
