Outdoor Decking Accessories
Complete installation accessories and finishing components for ZAUS outdoor composite decking systems.
ZAUS Outdoor Decking Accessories provide the fixing, subframe and finishing components required to support a coordinated composite decking installation.
The range covers concealed board fixing, starting and finishing details, supporting joists and secure fixing to concrete substrates, allowing the decking boards and associated installation components to be considered as one complete system.
From starter clips and concealed board fixings through to galvanised or aluminium joists and co-extruded perimeter trims, individual components can be selected according to the decking profile, substrate and installation requirements of the project.
Concealed Fixing System
ZAUS composite decking can be installed using concealed fixing components positioned between adjoining decking boards.
Depending on the selected decking system, components can include:
Plastic decking clips
Stainless steel decking clips
Starter clips
Self-drilling screws
Compatible fixing screws
The concealed fixing arrangement secures the decking while maintaining consistent spacing between adjoining boards and reducing visible fixings across the primary decking surface.
Final clip and fixing selection should be matched to the selected decking profile and manufacturer-supported installation system.
Starter Clips
Starter clips are used to establish and secure the first or perimeter decking board within compatible installations.
Correct positioning of the first board is important because it establishes the alignment for the subsequent decking surface.
Starter clips should therefore be positioned according to the required board direction, perimeter condition and applicable installation detail before the remaining concealed clips are installed.
Plastic Decking Clips
Compatible plastic clips provide concealed fixing and controlled spacing between adjoining decking boards.
The clip is positioned within the applicable board profile and secured to the supporting joist below.
Final board spacing depends on the selected clip system and should be maintained consistently throughout the installation.
Stainless Steel Clips
Stainless steel clips provide an alternative concealed fixing solution for compatible decking profiles.
They can be used where the applicable decking and installation system requires a metal fixing component while maintaining a concealed connection between the decking boards and supporting structure.
Final clip type should be confirmed against the selected decking profile before installation.
Screws & Fixings
The accessory range incorporates the mechanical fixings required to secure decking components and supporting structures.
Available documented components include:
Self-drilling screws
Galvanised screws
Stainless steel screws
Expansion bolts
Compatible decking fixings
Fixing selection should consider the component being secured, supporting material, substrate and environmental conditions.
Subframe & Joists
The decking surface is supported by a dedicated joist structure installed over the prepared substrate.
Documented subframe options include:
Hot-dip galvanised steel joists
Aluminium joists
The recommended documented joist size is approximately 30 × 50 mm.
Joist material and configuration should be selected according to the decking system, supporting substrate and project conditions.
Concrete Fixing
Where the decking subframe is installed over an appropriate concrete substrate, expansion bolts can be used as part of the supporting structure fixing system.
The substrate should be suitably prepared and capable of supporting the proposed decking assembly before installation begins.
Expansion bolt type, spacing and fixing requirements should be coordinated with the selected joist system and actual substrate conditions.
Timber Plugs
Timber plugs can be incorporated into applicable finishing and fixing details where required by the selected installation system.
Their use depends on the specific decking profile and finishing condition rather than forming a universal requirement across every installation.
Final plug dimensions, material and installation method should therefore be confirmed against the applicable detail.
Edge Finishing
Perimeter finishing components provide a cleaner transition between the completed decking surface and exposed edges.
The documented accessory range includes:
KR3001 — Co-Extruded Edge Trim
50 × 50 mm
The edge trim can be coordinated with the selected decking surface to create a more resolved perimeter around exposed deck edges.
Final colour and finish should be selected from the applicable manufacturer-supported range.
Mitred Corner Detailing
Where edge trims meet at adjoining corners, compatible profiles can be mitre-cut to create a cleaner and more continuous perimeter detail.
Accurate cutting and alignment are important to maintain consistent junctions between adjoining trim sections.
The final corner treatment should be considered together with the board direction, exposed deck edges and surrounding architectural conditions.
Board Spacing
Concealed clips perform both a fixing and spacing function within compatible decking installations.
The selected clip system establishes the required relationship between adjoining boards, helping maintain consistent spacing across the completed deck.
Because spacing requirements can vary between fixing systems and decking profiles, the applicable clip and board combination should be confirmed before installation.
Accessory Selection
Not every decking installation requires the same combination of accessories.
Selection can consider:
Decking profile
Board dimensions
Substrate
Joist material
Board direction
Concealed fixing system
Perimeter conditions
Exposed edges
Required finishing details
Environmental conditions
This allows the accessory package to be developed around the actual decking installation rather than treating each component as an isolated product.
Complete Decking System Coordination
ZAUS Outdoor Decking Accessories can be coordinated with the broader outdoor composite decking range as one installation system.
Composite Decking • Hot-Dip Galvanised Steel Joists • Aluminium Joists • Plastic Clips • Stainless Steel Clips • Starter Clips • Screws • Expansion Bolts • Timber Plugs • KR3001 Co-Extruded Edge Trim
Coordinating these components with the decking profile helps ensure the subframe, board fixing, spacing and perimeter finishing requirements are considered before installation begins.
Project Development & Coordination
ZAUS develops outdoor decking accessory packages around the selected decking profile, project area and installation conditions.
The process can incorporate:
Select Decking Profile • Review Substrate • Confirm Joist System • Calculate Joist Requirements • Select Concealed Clips • Determine Starter Fixings • Confirm Screws & Anchors • Identify Exposed Edges • Coordinate Edge Trims • Calculate Accessory Quantities • Deliver • Coordinate Installation
Final accessory types, quantities, dimensions and fixing requirements are confirmed against the selected decking system and project conditions before ordering.
Applications
Residential Decking • Balconies • Terraces • Courtyards • Pool Surrounds • Rooftop Areas • Outdoor Entertaining Areas • Multi-Residential Developments • Hospitality • Selected Commercial Outdoor Areas
Subframe. Fixings. Finishing. One Coordinated System.
ZAUS Outdoor Decking Accessories provide the supporting components required to take the composite decking system from prepared substrate through to the finished perimeter.
Select the Decking • Configure the Subframe • Select the Clips • Coordinate the Fixings • Resolve the Edges • Confirm Quantities • Install
The result is a coordinated accessory system developed around secure concealed fixing, consistent board installation and clean architectural finishing.
