Our Packs Of Timber Decking Joists

We offer packs of solid timber decking joists, available in sets of 5. They are an essential component when creating a strong subframe and even offer a stunning visual look to your decking. They are designed to steadily support both deck boards and tiles, and can even be used as floor joists in some cases.

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.

Easy Deck Bearers Available To Buy

Sold individually, each bearer measures 2.4m in length and comes pre-notched for easy assembly. With simple interlocking slots, these bearers join together easily, requiring only 10 pieces to complete an 8ft square base.
