Deck Bearer & Joists

OUR STOCK OF TIMBER DECKING JOISTS AND BEARERS
Deck bearers and joists both set the foundation for your deck as well as provide proper ventilation to sustain your project. By lifting your decking, proper airflow is achieved which prevents moisture or flooding beneath the decking surface.
Our deck bearers are sold individually and measure a minimum 2.4m in length. They come pre-notched for easy assembly by simple interlocking slots that join each bearer together. This means an 8ft square base project only requires 10 bearers to complete.
Each of our joist and deck bearer products includes the following features:
-
Natural wood finish
-
Up to 3000mm in length and 125mm in width
-
Black or grey options
-
Durable and rot-resistant structure
-
Features quality brands like Millboard
The fine-sawn finish minimises splinters and offers the solid support your garden deck needs. We recommend cleaning and recoating all sides with a suitable deck seal, oil, or stain to prevent issues like splitting, warping, and rot, to keep your decking in good condition for years to come.
HOW FAR APART SHOULD DECKING JOISTS BE?
In general, the spacing between joists for decking boards should not exceed 450mm, with a recommended spacing of 400mm. This supports the boards while maintaining an even, level surface for walking and lounging. Even spacing along the length of the decking will keep the level of uniformity and structural integrity you're after.
