Home FAQs Installation

Can it be installed indoors/outdoors?

How do I install RAINBODECK?

  • Contact RAINBODECK or our global distributors for the INSTALLATION MANUAL covering all product lines and applications.


What tools are needed to install and cut RAINBODECK?

What tools are needed to install and cut RAINBODECK?

       Can Rainbodeck be used as a structural material?

  • RAINBODECK products are neither designed nor warranted for structural applications. No composite materials in the global market are approved for structural use.

  • For optimal performance, use with:

    • RAINBODECK-provided aluminum structures

What tools are needed to install and cut RAINBODECK?

       Does it have gaps to let water and organic matter through?

  • Prior to installation, ensure the construction site provides adequate deck ventilation and drainage. Maintain gaps between RAINBODECK boards to permit water and organic matter drainage. Insufficient gaps will trap moisture and debris, leading to potential decay.


Is RAINBODECK suitable for use in commercial settings and areas with harsh weather?

  • The comprehensive RBD product line meets nearly all residential and commercial requirements. 

  • RAINBODECK is globally proven in commercial and public projects, from humid Indonesia and snowy Norway to coastal Spain, arid Australia, and extreme Swiss alpine conditions.


Can I build a fire pit on my RAINBODECK decking?

  • Never place wood or gas fire pits directly on RAINBODECK decking. Gas fire pits may be installed adjacent to deck boards with a stone or fireproof barrier for insulation.


Can I use a non-recommended fastener/structural material to install RAINBODECK?

  • RAINBODECK prohibits non-approved fasteners or structural materials. Damage caused by such use voids the RAINBODECK Limited Warranty.


Should RAINBODECK be sanded?

  • RAINBODECK must never be sanded. Sanding alters the material's appearance and protective properties, voiding the warranty for any resulting damage.


Can I paint or stain my RAINBODECK boards?

  • Absolutely not. RAINBODECK is a factory-finished product with pre-designed color and texture. Painting or staining is prohibited and voids all warranty coverage for related damage.
