Norris Lakeside Composite Dock

About this project

Lakeside composite dock with a wood-grain finish, white picture-frame border, and black aluminum baluster railing — built to handle constant moisture without staining or sealing.

Norris is a lakeside dock, which is one of the toughest environments any decking material has to live in — constant moisture, UV, and water-line splash will destroy a pressure-treated wood dock in a fraction of its expected lifespan. We built this one out of wood-grain composite decking with a white picture-frame border around the perimeter and black aluminum balusters that won't rust at the waterline. Steps drop down to the rocky shoreline for easy water access, and the views across the lake are framed by the railing rather than blocked by it.
