Cleats

Cleats are the hardware your whole dock gets judged by, because they are what people actually touch. Undersized cleats pull out, and cheap castings corrode into a mess in one season on salt water.

Dock Builders Supply stocks dock cleats across every common style: standard horn cleats, S-cleats for tight timber faces, and flip-up cleats that fold flat so nobody catches a toe. Materials run from hot-dipped galvanized for budget builds to 316 stainless and marine aluminum for saltwater exposure, in sizes from small residential up to heavy commercial.

Back your cleats properly with 316 stainless fasteners and add line holders to keep lines coiled. Browse the full range below, or send us your dock plan for a free material estimate.
