1. What is the purpose of a composite decking joist?
The 50mm x 50mm Composite Decking Joist acts as the structural foundation for your decking system. It sits between the ground and the decking boards, providing essential support, stability, and alignment for a safe and long-lasting deck.
2. What is this joist made from?
It’s made from recycled plastics, offering an eco-friendly, sustainable alternative to traditional timber. The solid composite construction ensures strength and durability, even in challenging weather conditions.
3. What are the dimensions and weight of the joist?
Each joist measures 50mm x 50mm and is 2.4m long, with an approximate weight of 5.1kg — making it solid, sturdy, and easy to handle during installation.
4. Can this joist be used as part of the Triton Decking system?
Yes. These joists are fully compatible with Triton WPC Composite Decking and share the same high-quality recycled composite material for consistent performance and appearance.
5. What are the advantages of composite joists over timber joists?
Unlike timber, composite joists are:
Rot-resistant and moisture-proof
Splinter-free and warp-resistant
Insect and pest-resistant
Low-maintenance, with no need for staining, sealing, or painting
Long-lasting, providing a stable base for years
6. Is this joist suitable for all types of decking installations?
Yes — it’s ideal for use on solid, level bases such as patios, concrete, or compacted ground. However, for raised or uneven installations, a heavier-duty subframe system or pedestal support may be required.
7. How do I install composite decking joists?
Lay the joists evenly spaced across the base (typically 300–400mm apart, centre-to-centre).
Fix securely in place using suitable outdoor fixings.
Ensure proper drainage and ventilation beneath the deck to prevent moisture buildup.
8. Does the joist require maintenance?
No. The composite material is virtually maintenance-free. It won’t rot, crack, or warp — simply rinse occasionally to remove dirt or debris if exposed.
