How to Install Your Prefab Decking Kit from Footings Express
Step-by-Step Installation Guide (Simplified)
We understand DIY can sound intimidating, especially if you’re not a builder. Don’t worry – our kits are designed for ordinary Aussies. Here’s what you need to do:
Tools Needed for Installation (Prepare This First!)
You don’t need professional tools or expensive equipment.
Here’s all you’ll need:
| Tool | Included Kit? | Typical Cost if You Need to Buy |
|---|---|---|
| Screwdriver/Drill | No | $25-$50 (from hardware stores) |
| Rubber Mallet | No | $10-$15 |
| Tape Measure | No | $5-$10 |
| Safety Gear | No | $10-$20 |
Most of these tools can be found in Aussie homes already or picked up affordably at places like Bunnings or Mitre 10.
Step 1: Site Preparation
Pick where you want your deck and clear the space. Make sure the area is level and free of obstacles. If you’re unsure about site prep, just give us a call – we’ll guide you through.
Step 2: Mark & Layout
Lay out all your prefab deck pieces on the ground where they’ll go. Check that everything matches your plan. If adjustments are needed, it’s easy to do at this stage.
Step 3: Install Footings and Mega Anchors
Use the custom footings provided with your kit, along with the Mega Anchors, to secure the base of your deck into place.
This step is quick because the footings and anchors are specially designed for simple installation – no complicated concrete pouring or professional tools required.
Step 4: Assemble Deck Panels
Now, put your deck panels into place.
The provided instructions clearly show you how each panel attaches securely.
Everything fits together like a big puzzle – simple and satisfying.
Step 5: Secure and Check Stability
Finally, tighten all fittings securely (just a screwdriver or basic drill needed).
Check the stability and alignment of your new deck.
Give it a good test walk, and you’re done!
