BEFORE YOU BEGIN INSTALLATION: Read and understand all of the installation instructions contained within
this manual. Improper installation could result in product failure or personal injury, and may void the warranty.
IMPORTANT: Before installing your new UDECX Portable Patio Deck, you must LEVEL the area where you intend to
install your system, or at the location of each Pier (A).
IMPORTANT: If you intend to install a UDECX optional railing system on your Patio Deck, read and understand
Steps 17 through 25 prior to installing your Patio Deck.
(NOTE: When selecting an area for your patio deck, keep in mind that the more level the area, the simpler the in-
stallation. Areas with sloping grade will require more excavation or the purchase of optional shims and risers to
level the piers. The Starter Kit you purchased is designed to be assembled into a 10’ x 10’ patio deck, however, the
components can be arranged in a variety of configurations. Individual components are available to expand and
personalize your Patio Deck configuration and size. Learn more at www.udecx.com)
Determine where you
would like to install your
UDECX Patio Deck and
measure off a 10’ X 10’ or
selected area. (Fig. 1)
Level the soil or grade and
remove all vegetation
Place an Anchor Spike (D) through the center of the 1” hole in the Pier (A). (Fig. 5) Install the Anchor
Spike (D) with a hammer or hand sledge. (NOTE: Be very careful not to hit the Pier (A) with a hammer,
hand sledge or other tool that might damage the Pier (A).
LEAVE SPACE between the head of the Anchor Spike (D) and the top of the Pier (A). (Fig. 6)) This
provides wiggle room for adjusting the location of the Pier (A) when necessary. (Fig. 7) Level Pier (A)
in each direction.
2.
Place the first Pier (A) at an
outside corner of the 10’ X
10’ area you measured off.
(Fig. 3)
If you plan to install next to
a building or structure of
any kind, place the edge of
the first Pier (A) 1” away
