Introducing GRAD – the decking system of the future

GRAD is a truly invisible fixing decking system, with the clips completely hidden under boards and not on show between the boards.

Until now, hidden fix decking has usually involved clips which are individually fitted all along the edge of each board, but the unique `clip grip` design at the heart of the GRAD system means that decks can now be installed at least twice as fast as traditional methods. Another advantage of the GRAD clips is that they grip deep into the heart of each board (and not just along part of the edge) so once locked in place the boards are impossible to dislodge.  However, when necessary, any board can be easily and quickly removed using our special tool, without any marking or damage to the face of the material.

The Outdoor Deck Company supply the GRAD decking system as either component parts, or as a fully integrated system of pedestals, support rails and specially milled boards, which are available in Thermo-Pine, Thermo-Ash, Kebony and Accoya. The GRAD system also includes two composite boards, both in an organic plank design – one coloured as `new` timber, one as `weathered grey` finish.

                    

Designed and manufactured in France, GRAD have been constantly refining and improving the materials and technology behind their clip grip system since 1988. As exclusive exporters, we are confident that the GRAD technology offers the very best combination of quality, durability, strength, accuracy and economy that you will find in the any decking system now available anywhere in the UK.
