What Customers Are Saying

The Grip-Rite deck screws have received mixed reviews. Many customers praise the product's quality, durability, and ease of use, particularly the star-shaped head design that prevents stripping and allows for faster installation. The rust-resistant coating and included driver bit are also appreciated. However, some customers have reported issues with poor grip, failure to hold, and difficulty driving the screws without pre-drilling. The thread design has been a common point of criticism, with customers stating it does not provide enough bite or grip. Overall, the screws seem to work well for many customers, but there are also significant quality control issues that have led to frustration for some users.

Grip-Wrong should be the name

Would Not Recommend

TERRIBLE IN EVERY WAY! It says: " For exterior wood to wood applications". I built a shed and these screws [1-1/4" x8] failed 9 out of 10 times; failed to grip; just spun! I want my $9.48 back Lowe's!

Good product

Would Recommend

I use these deck screws for all sorts of projects. Most recently, though, to build 3ft. and 5ft. fence gates out of lap joint fence gates out of 2x4s. I will continue to use deck screws over nails when I want a secure, non slip fastener.

Fast work!

Would Recommend

Used for deck-type stairs outside sliding door. Screws are very easy to use with green wood decking. Couple spins with a drill/driver and they take hold.

Quality Deck screw

Would Recommend

I've used several Grip-Rite screw sizes. They all perform extremely well. The torque bit head never strip out when driving reducing construction time and frustration.
