The Walkout Package From Green Shield Deck Builders

Adam Rought Explains the Walkout Package

What is the Green Shield Walkout Package?

Green Shield’s Walkout Package uses an integrated beam to reduce the number of posts needed to support your deck. The Walkout Package is a great way to improve the view from your home and improve the flow of movement around your property.

You are most likely to see the Green Shield Walkout Package on second story decks where the ground floor or basement walkout needs a good view of the property. Common examples would be homeowners who want to look out over a lake or river. The Green Shield Walkout Package is also great for homeowners who want to see their garden better or watch their children play.

Green Shield Walkout Package opens up the view from your deck.

Most of our competitors are not able to offer a Walkout Package because it requires integrating an engineered beam. Per code requirements, this should be done by a licensed and insured builder. If done incorrectly removing posts will result in the frame not being able to support the full weight of your deck. Improperly supported decks can collapse unexpectedly and may cause injury. Avoid this risk and improve your views, trust the Green Shield deck experts who have built more Walkout Package decks than any other deck builder in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana.

How Does an Integrated Beam Work?

Using an integrated engineered beam allows Green Shield to space deck posts further apart. Typical deck posts per code are required every 10 feet. An integrated beam extends the distance between posts up to 19 feet.

Walkout decks are great for lake and beach properties. Preserve your views!
