Deck Beams

Deck beams are an essential part of every deck frame. A deck beam runs horizontally and is a key to securing a deck's joists and transferring weight to the deck posts. Properly installed beams provide the stability needed for a deck that lasts. There are lots of different beam options and materials available in the deck industry. Your deck builder should be able to select the correct beam to achieve the desired effect on your project. Be sure to ask about code compliant building practices for best results and safety.

The Green Shield Difference

Green Shield’s deck framing is built with only premier deck materials. Our deck beams are #1 grade KDAT lumber carefully selected for the best performance. In addition to installing regular deck beams to code, Green Shield offers engineered beam solutions that allow for longer distances between posts for our walkout packages.

"Code compliance and safety are top priorities at Green Shield Deck Builders. Every deck beam is carefully chosen to make sure your deck frame lasts a lifetime."
