These Black Composite Decking Nylon Fixing Clips provide a secure, hidden fastening system for your composite decking boards. Designed to lock boards firmly in place while maintaining consistent spacing, they create a clean, screw-free surface finish.
Each clip includes matching screws for straightforward installation onto joists, ensuring your decking remains stable and weather-resistant for years to come.
Key Features
To complete your Easy Decking installation for a seamless look, you also need:
Composite boards expand and contract slightly with temperature changes.
Your installation must account for this movement — with gaps, spacing, and correct fixing.
This guide covers installing:
Leave boards outside for 24–48 hours in the area they will be installed. This reduces movement once installed.
Composite decking is only as strong as the structure beneath it.
If installing over soil or grass, follow these steps:
Never lay composite boards directly onto the ground or flat concrete — they need airflow underneath to prevent moisture buildup.
For standard deck boards:
For step boards or areas with higher load:
For diagonal patterns:
A square frame ensures neat board lines and no creeping gaps.
❌ Joists not level:
Leads to bouncy boards, pooling water, and gaps appearing over time.
❌ Insufficient support:
Composite decking is heavier than timber; under-supported decks sag.
Composite boards must have spacing:
Boards expand in hot weather and contract in cold weather.
Without these gaps, boards can lift, buckle, or creak.
Choose one of the two reversible surfaces:
Important:
If the deck is in a direction where water needs to drain, install grooves running downhill.
The first board determines the straightness of the entire deck.
You can install using:
Do not overtighten — clips must allow movement.
If you prefer screws:
Top-screwing is possible but not recommended unless necessary — it’s less attractive.
Use spacers between all boards.
Think of brickwork — stagger joints for strength and appearance.
A string line or chalk line every few boards is essential to avoid drift.
Composite boards cut similarly to timber but require clean, accurate cuts.
❌ Cutting too fast (causes melting)
❌ Leaving rough edges unwiped (sharp plastic fibres)
Edging trim hides joists and cut ends — giving the deck a premium finish.
Step boards (bullnose) create the front edge of steps.
❌ Using standard deck boards as step fronts (they lack nose overhang)
❌ Long unsupported overhangs (they can crack)
Corner angle trim protects exposed corners and gives clean detailing.
End caps are very simple but extremely important.
❌ Using end caps on solid boards
❌ Forcing if resistance is high (clean the cavity first)

Overall rating: 4.5 / 5 from 2 reviews.
Good strong clips. The only negative is the screw heads were slightly too big which marked the boards as you screwed them in. At first, I thought my screwdriver bit was causing the issue, but it turned out to be the screw heads.
