What Are Deck Jacks and Why You Need Them

Deck Jacks are innovative support components designed to create a stable, level subfloor for decking installations. They serve as the critical foundation, supporting joists and evenly distributing weight across the surface. One of the key advantages of adjustable deck jacks is their ability to accommodate a variety of deck heights and uneven surfaces. By simply rotating the jack, you can precisely raise or lower the support height—making them perfect for sloped areas, rooftops, balconies, and patios. Whether you’re building with composite decking or solid timber, deck jacks offer unmatched versatility and stability for any outdoor project.

How to Choose the Right Deck Jack for Your Project

Selecting the right deck jack starts with assessing your project’s specific requirements:

  1. Measure your finished floor height – Determine the vertical distance between the substrate and the top of your decking. Our adjustable deck jacks accommodate finished heights from 20mm to 100mm, with extenders available for greater elevations.

  2. Consider load capacity – Ensure your chosen jack can support the expected weight, including decking materials and foot traffic.

  3. Material compatibility – Decide whether you’ll use aluminium joists or solid timber. Auswide Frameless deck jacks support both.

  4. Fixed vs. adjustable – For most projects, adjustable deck jacks provide the best flexibility and future-proofing, especially for sloped or uneven surfaces.

  • Height adjustability – Easy leveling on uneven ground without custom cutting

  • Non-invasive – Ideal for waterproof membranes and sensitive substrates

  • Cost-effective – Reduces labour and material costs over time

  • Reusable – Can be repositioned or removed as needed

For builders and homeowners seeking a streamlined, durable decking solution, adjustable deck jacks clearly outshine traditional support methods in efficiency, adaptability, and long-term value.
