looks an awesome system
can you get screws to match your deck color
Hi Frank. So the great thing about our clips is that they're hidden between the groove of the boards when they are installed so you don't see them, so no need to match them to the color of your deck. If you are looking to face fasten your deck, we do offer composite screws that are color matched to deck boards.
Whats the process for butt joints? Many decks I build are longer then 20ft. You have any rules or operations around butt joints?
Hi Shawn, thank you for your patience while we got back to you regarding your comment. Here's a link to our product training guide posted on our website that you can download. On page 52, you'll find information on how to handle butt joints for both our Edge and EdgeX clips. www.camofasteners.com/wp-content/uploads/CMO-2023-Training-Guide-V16-LR.pdf. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Can the edge clip accommodate a 1/8 larger gap if necessary ?
Probably not. I use the edge clips quite a bit, and the are made to give you a consistent 3/16th spacing. Any more than that and the metal ears on the clips won't grab much of the grooved edge of the board.
Any suppliers in bc? I cant seem to find them at my local box stores
@driveman figured you'd reply before the company would. What's the process for butt joints? I can't find any literature around what to use for butt joints on decks longer then 20ft
Will this work for grooved Ipe deck boards? The supplier I’m talking to (Advantage Lumber) says screws MUST go THROUGH the boards. I don’t know if they are just creating fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) to favor some other system or if screwing through the wood is a special requirement for ipe wood.
I love the idea behind this CAMO fastening system because it entirely eliminates the usual Ipe requirement to pre-drill every hole, which will cut the number of operations required in half, plus it seems more maintainable.
But I have to be certain it works for Ipe.
I appreciate any insights anyone can provide.
@markhooker8520 Our CAMO clips will work with grooved IPE. However, other clips in the market are designed specifically for IPE installation through the board and must be per-drilled; our clips are designed differently. One thing to note, though, when installing IPE is to follow directions for acclimating the decking on site before installation. Our clips don't prevent board shrinkage, which can be troublesome if the product isn't acclimated correctly. If you have other questions, please reach out to marketing@camofasteners.com as we're happy to help.
