Questions & Answers
How many inches between step risers do you recommend?
Thank you for your question, Craig. For stair risers, Fiberon recommends fastening riser boards to stair stringers spaced no more than 12 inches on center. Please note that riser boards are non-structural and should only be used as a covering for stair stringers. For complete stair construction requirements, be sure to follow local building codes and Fiberon's installation instructions. Instructions can be found at: https://fiberon.widen.net/s/c2schrfsv5/fib_pe_decking--fastener-instructions
How many clips are needed for each board
Two clips are needed at every joist spaced a maximum of 16" on center. This is discussed on page 4 of the installation instructions. Details for installing approved clips and surface fasteners begin on page 7. We recommend carefully reviewing the installation instructions as the warranty is dependent upon proper installation. Please find the link to the installation instructions below. https://fiberon.widen.net/s/c2schrfsv5/fib_pe_decking--fastener-instructions
How can I get the writing off that you printed on the side?
Thank you for your question. Rubbing alcohol or Goof Off should remove the writing on the board edges. Be sure to thoroughly rinse with clean water to avoid leaving any kind of film.
What is the purpose of the grove edge?
Thank you for your question. The grooved edge is for installing hidden clips. For more detail and information, please refer to the installation instructions: https://fiberon.widen.net/s/c2schrfsv5/fib_pe_decking--fastener-instructions
Is this the same as veranda stone grey?
Thank you for your question. No, Veranda Stone Gray is not the same as ArmorGuard Costal Gray. Additionally, Home Depot is discontinuing the Veranda composite decking so we recommend checking availability of the Stone Gray material.
what is the maximum spacing for the support beams
The maximum joist spacing when installing the deck boards perpendicular to the joists is 16" on center. If installing the deck boards at an angle to the joist then they must be spaced at 12" on center maximum. Please find the link to the installation instructions here: https://fiberon.widen.net/s/c2schrfsv5/fib_pe_decking--fastener-instructions
Is the 1 inch composite decking as sturdy as 2 inch wood on 16 inch on center frame
Thank you for your question. ArmorGuard Composite Decking passes all testing requirements for the International Residential Building Code. To view the Physical and Mechanical Properties, please see the link below. https://outdoorsandsecurity.widen.net/s/s25rkwrfkx/lit_physical-and-mechanical-properties_22
Can you paint it
Painting the deck boards is not recommended as paint will not adhere well and it can void the warranty. That being said, the board ends can be painted for aesthetic purposes without voiding the warranty. Please keep in mind, the paint will need to be maintained as it will likely peel over time.

The materials are manufactured to a specific width when hot during the extrusion process, but slight variations can occur as the materials cool and contract. Boards contract less when manufactured during the summer months and cool more slowly and contract more in the winter as the boards cool more quickly.
Whenever possible, utilizing the same length of material should minimize the potential for variations. Preplanning and sorting may be necessary for the best outcome.
Please reach out to our Fiberon Consumer and Technical Support Team at 800-573-8841.
If the boards are outside of the manufacturing tolerance, they can advise how to file a warranty claim.
