It is recommended to take docks out during the winter if there is a chance that ice may forma round the dock. Wind can move ice causing it to bend dock legs. We made our docks light to make this task easy!

Each dock section should take about 20-25min for a single person to put together. It takes less time with two people.

We recommend installing your dock to make the decking 13-18 inches above the waters surface. Pre-measuring your water depth and making your assembled dock legs correspond can help with in-water installation.

Yes! Unlike many of our competitors docks, we made out docks salt water ready by using aluminum, stainless and brass components.

Our adjustable shore kit is a hinge system that connects 2 sections of dock. I.E. If you want 4 sections of dock in the water with a ramp to them, then order 5 total dock sections. The fifth section will double as your ramp, and the legs that come with that section will go on the first free standing dock section the ramp connects to. Lastly add the adjustable shore kit to connect the ramp to the dock section.

Our configurations are only limited to your shoreline and your imagination. With our modular design, you can create any configuration you wanter since each dock section can be attached to another on any of the four sides of the dock.

Our dock is made from aluminum and the hardware is stainless and brass. This keeps the dock rust and corrosion free while making it lighter than wood or steel.

X8 Docks are made in Northeast Ohio and shipped nation wide.
