CrossTimbers.

For the beauty of a wooden deck with less care and effort, choose Elk CrossTimbers brand composite decking. Its superior engineering and design creates a deck that lasts longer than ordinary wooden decks with less maintenance – no staining or sealing required. CrossTimbers won't warp, crack, splinter or rot like wood.

Backed by a 20-year limited warranty*, CrossTimbers is a decision you can make with confidence. The better deck is the better choice.

StoneDeck.

StoneDeck combines a thin stone surface, featuring compressive strength and durability, with a high tensile strength composite panel. This union creates a unique stressed skin panel which spans between framing members and carries loads far in excess of building code requirements.

"It doesn't feel like a deck, it feels like a stone terrace or patio!"

This unique and innovative decking system features an integral fastening matrix that connects to the wood joists while interlocking all structural stone panels firmly in place. The result is a free draining, structural deck solution which overcomes the maintenance and deterioration of conventional deck materials.

"The feel is solid and dense. The colors are rich and natural. I can't believe that stone can be used in this way. I love it!"

Simplicity and ease of installation appeal to the professional deck builder and homeowner alike. The stunning results from the beautiful stone panels offer durability and aesthetic appeal beyond comparison.

"Honey, I'll never have to stain the deck again!"

Durarail Railings are Maintenance-Free

The Durarail polyester material (TGIC) is UV resistant, will not peel, flake or blister and as it ages. It can be buffed back to like-new condition with a cut polish.

Aluminum Strength

The strength of a rail or fence system is in the posts and the framework. The stronger the structure, the wider the spans between the posts. Durarail¹s framework uses the 6063 T5 alloy. The posts are made of the even stronger 6005A-T61 alloy. The .070" wall thickness of the extrusions are the heaviest in the industry.

Powder-Coated Durability

The powder coating system used as the finish for Durarail is the most popular industrial coating in the world. The powder coated components are baked in a 400° F oven for superior adhesion and a consistent coating thickness.
