Fasteners connect award-winning decks

National Nail Corp.'s CAMO hidden deck fasteners were used in two decks that took first place in NADRA's National Deck Competition.

The Grand Rapids, Mich.-based fastener company's CAMO fasteners were part of the 2012 Best Dock and the 2012 Best Covered Deck, the company said. The dock was built using CAMO Hidden Fasteners and materials, including Douglas Fir, Hemlock, Cedar and AZEK PVC decking.

The covered deck involved removing an existing deck and building a larger deck that includes a screened-in porch, outdoor kitchen and living area. The deck was built using CAMO Hidden Fasteners and Gossen Passport PVC decking. 

The awards ceremony for the third annual event took place last month. Finalists were selected based on creativity, use of space and functionality, use of materials and overall visual appeal.
