FastenMaster Screws & Fasteners

FastenMaster screws & fasteners split into two jobs, and the range makes more sense once you separate them.

On the deck surface: TrapEase colour-match screws for a visible finish, and Cortex, a collated plug system that drives the screw and sets a colour-matched plug in one pass. Cortex plugs are made from the decking itself, so the colour match holds across composite brands.

In the frame: the LOK range handles ledgers, beams, posts and through-bolt replacement. The reason pros specify it is that it drives without pre-drilling and carries code evaluation reports, which matters when an inspector asks how the ledger is attached. Call (815) 439-3325 for the right length.
