What Makes a Wooden Dock Stand Out?

What makes a treated pine wooden dock stand out among other options?

• Quality treated pine dock sections use premium lumber that is kiln dried after treatment, making it ideal to apply stains to as soon as you receive the sections 
• Treated pine wooden dock sections use stainless steel fasteners, wood screws instead of nails, and anodized aluminum side rails

Do You Need to Remove Your Dock for the Winter?

Ice flows can not only destroy a dock, but they can also move boulders, boat lifts, and basically anything else in their path.

It is very common in northern Michigan or similar climates to have ice pile up several feet high on the shore, and that is what generally causes damage to anything too close to the edge of the lake. In a northern climate, there are only a few situations where you can leave your aluminum boat dock in the water, including:

• Ponds and backwaters where ice flows are not an issue 
•  If you have used galvanized steel tubing, where it is much less prone to rupturing if the ice freezes around the pole 

 If you have doubts as to whether you can leave a dock in or not, ask our team of experts! We’ve been building and installing aluminum boat docks for over 60 years and have the expertise and knowledge to help you. If you do have a dock that was damaged in the winter months, we can help with that too!
