For use with SlideLoc Installation Tool Only!
What TimberTech SIDELoc Hidden Deck Screws Are
SIDELoc screws are purpose-made hidden fasteners used with the SIDELoc installation system to secure AZEK square-shouldered, capped PVC decking boards without visible screws on the deck surface. They’re driven into the side of the board into the joist using a SIDELoc Guide tool, creating a clean, fastener-free look while holding the boards firmly in place.
Key Features
Hidden from View
-
Screws are driven at an angle through the board’s side instead of the top, leaving the deck surface smooth and free of screw heads.
Designed for AZEK/TimberTech Advanced PVC
-
Specifically engineered only for use with square-shouldered capped polymer boards, such as AZEK decking. They should not be used on grooved or composite boards, or with other fastener systems.
No Pre-Drilling Required
-
The sharp tip and geometry allow you to install them without pre-drilling holes, saving time on the job.
Built-In Spacing & Fit
-
When used with the proper SIDELoc Guide tool, they help maintain the recommended ~1/8″ board gap automatically.
T15 Star Drive
-
Most SIDELoc screws use a T15 star drive, which offers better engagement with the driver bit and reduces cam-out during installation.
High-Quality Stainless Steel
You typically have two main SIDELoc screw styles available: TimberTech
-
304 Stainless Steel (1-7/8″): Great for most standard AZEK deck boards and general environments.
