We offer boat dock and boat lift installs in North and South Carolina.  
Here are a few of the areas we offer services:  Lake Norman, Lake Wiley, Lake Hickory, Lake James, Kerr Lake, Mountain Island Lake, Badin Lake, Mooresville, Cornelius, Hickory, Charlotte, and more!
  

Sub FrameThe dock sub frame consists of a Hot Dipped galvanized trussed construction. This is a time-tested system that has been used in commercial marinas for over 50 years.

Slip Angles:  This is a simple addition to our Signature dock, which adds considerable area and strength to the dock by triangulating the inside of the slip.

Roof Post:  The roof post consists of 4" square steel tubing with either a commercial galvanized coating or a painted finish. The size of this post not only offers great strength to the dock but also gives a great look.

Roof Frame:  This is where it makes sense to be light in weight. With this in mind, we use an aluminum-welded frame with through bolted side banding. There are several roof color options as well as cupola and weather vanes.

Frame Banding:  All perimeters of the dock are banded with IPE decking. This does away with the typical metallic look of boat docks and also adds strength to the dock.

Coatings:  All metal surfaces will be either galvanized or sandblasted and coated with an epoxy and urethane automotive coating that includes a 10-year warranty from the manufacturer.

Folding Cleats:  These cleats are standard on the outboard fingers of the dock to eliminate toe stub areas. 8" nylon deck cleats are used on the inside of the slip.

Ramps:  The access ramp that leads to the dock is made of welded steel or aluminum with an optional finish color to soften the metallic look. We have standard ramps, as well as ramps with flared ends which create more room to walk onto the dock. The flare also adds a great look and more importantly adds strength by widening the hinge point.

Dock Hinges:  The key word here is heavy duty. We are using a schedule 40 steel pipe welded to a 1/4" steel plate that is then welded to the dock frame.

Anchoring Options:  We offer standard steel pipe, or Seaflex cable system with all Signature Series dock systems.

General:  All docks include bumpers around the perimeter of the dock inside and out.
