Elevate Your Craft: CAMO Hidden Fasteners Are the Professional Standard

For a professional deck builder, your portfolio isn’t just a collection of photos—it’s a testament to your attention to detail and refusal to compromise on quality. Your clients don’t just want a deck; they want a seamless outdoor living space that reflects their investment.

To achieve a flawless, fastener-free finish that stands up to the elements and heavy foot traffic, you need a system engineered for the job site. CAMO Hidden Fasteners offer the precision, speed, and structural integrity required to turn a standard build into a premium showcase.

Deck Clips for Grooved Decking

When working with grooved composite, PVC, or hardwood, the goal is a surface that looks like a single, continuous plane. CAMO’s line of universal clips provides the stability pros demand with the aesthetic homeowners strive for.

  • Starter Clips: Eliminate the need for unsightly face screws at the beginning and end of your project. These clips secure the perimeter boards against the ledger and the outer rim, ensuring a 100% fastener-free field.
  • EDGE Clips: Designed for the heavy lifting of a standard 90° installation. These clips “hug” the joist, staying exactly where you put them until you’re ready to drive the screw. They automatically set the gap, removing the guesswork from your workflow.
  • WEDGEClips: Complexity shouldn’t slow you down. For herringbone patterns, picture-frame borders, or diagonal installs, WEDGEClips offer 360-degree versatility, locking boards down at any angle.

Redefining Square-Edge Installation

Hidden fasteners aren’t reserved exclusively for grooved boards. If you prefer working with square-edge timber or PVC, the CAMO EDGE Deck Screw system allows you to maintain a clean surface without sacrificing the structural “v-lock” of a traditional screw.

By utilizing the MARKSMAN Pro tool, you can drive EDGE screws directly into the side of the board at a precise angle. This keeps the hardware tucked out of sight while the tool automatically maintains consistent gapping across the entire deck.

The Professional Advantage: Why CAMO Wins

In a competitive market, your reputation is built on the “unseen” details. Here is why elite contractors choose CAMO:

  • Clips are up to 88% stronger in lateral movement and 50% stronger in uplift than the competition.
  • EDGE Screws feature an auger tip that clears out material as it drives, preventing the splitting or cracking common in edge-fastening.
  • Tools like the CAMO DRIVE or ClipDRIVE allow for standing installation, cutting labor time in half and saving your back.
  • The CAMO LEVER tool straightens warped boards and locks rows in place, allowing you to fasten multiple points simultaneously.

The Bottom Line: Build Better, Build Faster

A deck built with CAMO isn’t just a deck—it’s a high-performance structure. By choosing fasteners that prioritize both the installer’s efficiency and the client’s vision, you ensure a finish that looks as good in ten years as it does on move-in day.

Don’t just meet the industry standard; set it. Use CAMO for your next project and deliver the rock-solid, fastener-free results your craftsmanship deserves.

Note: While CAMO tools streamline the process, pre-drilling is still required for hardwood and capped composite materials to ensure a perfect finish.
