Customer Reviews


5 stars Great Tool
this made installing the deck boards evenly an easy job! Big bang for the buck.


5 stars Excellent product
This is an excellent product. I used it to space and fasten composite deck planks. The two functions the device performs:

1. As a jig for locating nail holes. Since I chose traditional screws, the gauge, when aligned above a joist, allowed for me to punch the hole locations in two adjacent planks. It also worked to properly align fasteners on butt-joined decking. I used a 2x1/4" screws as centerpunches - and the job flew by.

2. To space the deckboards. The gauge has a side for 3/16" spacing, and if you flip it over, the gauge is 1/8" thick. I found having both thicknesses handy to ensure that my deckboards were running parallel to the house. If after a few boards, one side was creeping out of parallel, I simply used the thicker spacing to bring the boards in line with the house.

With two people and two gauges - any decking job will fly by.


5 stars Johnson DeckMate
Product worked as advertised. Just used it to build a ramp for a storage building. I am confident it will work well on deck builds or repairs.


5 stars Good tool! Should have bought 2
This is a very good tool to have doing the decking. I wish I had bought 2 of them since I had 2 crews putting decking on at the same time.


4 stars Deck Installation Spacing made easy
This is a great tool to ensure that the spacing on your deck is correct and even.
