What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise these deck screws for strong holding power and clean, flush aesthetics that blend seamlessly with composite decking. Many report excellent long-term stability and neat appearance, stating they would repurchase. However, some experience installation challenges, particularly with bit wear and countersinking issues. Several note that using the correct driver bit and pre-drilling are essential for success. A few report persistent problems with head stripping or screws spinning without driving fully. Despite these concerns, most customers find the reliable grip and visual finish worthwhile.

Difficult Install

Would Not Recommend

I purchased Deckforce for my Trex deck as I had run out of Cortex brand fasteners and Lowe’s did not carry Cortex at local store. The Deckforce screws were very difficult to bite into Trex board with many going in at an angle. Once installed they performed well in holding the deck board secure to the joist.

Failed to countersink themselves in TREX decking.

don't buy these

Would Not Recommend

these screws sucked. they would not pull in completely even with pre-drilling! Spend a lil more and buy the ones with the bit in the box that pre drills with a counter sink but included. we even tried doing that with these screws and they still didn't pull the Trex fascia boards in tight.

Buy a Bit

Would Recommend

I have used better screws. The screws weren't bad, but... get a better T20 bit. The included bit wore out quite quickly. The screws themselves were good and held well.
