Green Shield's Walkout Package

Green Shield believes a walkout basement should feel like an extension of the home, not a forest of support posts. Through smarter engineering, Green Shield utilizes custom-manufactured engineered beams to transform the traditional deck understructure.

The Walkout Advantage:

• Integrated Engineering: While typical builders place a bulky beam underneath the joists, Green Shield integrates the beam directly into the deck surface. This eliminates the "dropped beam" look for a clean, professional finish.
• Fewer Obstructions: This structural upgrade allows our team to reduce the number of support posts by nearly half. This is the premier solution for lakefront properties and walkout basements where preserving the view is a priority.
• Hardworking Backbone: By partnering with specialized lumber manufacturers to create these beams, Green Shield provides a reliably engineered build that balances elite craftsmanship with real-world function.

Green Shield provides the bridge between a homeowner’s vision and a structure built to last. Visit the Green Shield website to see how our team can open up your outdoor living space with the Walkout Package.

The walkout package by Green Shield is extremely cool. We had a lumber company actually make a engineered beam. What this gives us the ability to do is actually nearly cut the amount of posts on your deck in half and simultaneously take the ugly beam that's underneath joists typically on a deck and move it up into the deck surface where it's integrated. Where we see it being very common is on lakes, walkout basements for example. And by doing this, it really sets your deck apart from the rest just gives it that clean finished look that a lot of homeowners are looking for.
