How to Build a

Wooden Dock System in 4 Step

Mount the dock upside down on a flat surface in order to easily install floats. The boards need

to be flush on the bottom side to install decking properly in last step. Lay down boards, best

side out, and screw together. The screws should not be aligned with holes you will make for

hardware (A). Check squareness by measuring an "X" from corner to corner (+/- 1-4") (B). You

can lock the position by screwing down a diagonal piece temporarely on the frame (C).

"but better"

For a floating dock section, spread 2" x 6" float supports and floats evenly on the frame (to eva-

luate where they will be installed). Mark the frame and supports (for bolts) accordingly.

Remove floats and screw on the support boards. Bolt on floats to the supports.

A) Before installing the decking, you will need help to flip the structure over to avoid any back

injuries. Carefully flip the struture top side up.

B) Confirm squareness again. Lay down, space and screw on decking planks along each side and

inside joists.

1 Pour un quai flottant, assemblez le quai à l’envers sur une surface plane afin d’installer les flotteurs facilement. Les planches doivent être égales en-dessous en vue de l’étape 4. Disposez les planches avec leurs beaux cotés à l’extérieur et vissez. Les vis ne doivent pas être alignées avec les trous que vous ferez pour la quincaillerie (A). Vérifiez l’équerrage en mesurant un “X” d’un coin à l’autre (+/- 1/4”) (B). Fixez la position en vissant temporairement une planche sur la structure (C).
