The Many Advantages To Buying Modular Floating Docks

By Kristy Buckner


Modular floating docks are a great way for you to make the most of your waterfront property without having to put forth a lot of effort or expense. These systems are a lot easier to install and the cost is significantly less than that of traditional fixed dock systems. They also allow you to go from purchase to usage in as little as a couple of days compared to weeks building and setting a traditional dock.

The biggest advantage to floating docks is the fact that they fluctuate with water levels, unlike traditional docks. This means that no matter the season, phase of the moon or weather you will be able to access your boat easily. Of course this is not the only great reason for buying one of these systems.

The easy drop and float installation of these systems allows you to connect the segments side by side or end to end to create any configuration that you want. These systems can be installed in as little as several hours. Even the installations of land side units can be done in a quarter of the time with simple drop and connect support structures.

Most systems on the market are made of alternative materials that look, feel and age just like natural wood. Of course these materials are free of the limitations that natural materials have. These units are nail and screw free, do not splinter and never need painting, staining or sanding. These units also have he added bonus of having a non-slip surface making the enjoyment of your dock much safer.

There are many add-ons that you can use to customize your dock. There are options for storage boxes, swim ladders, fishing pole mounts and more. One of the most popular add-ons is roof systems and swim platforms. Roofs allow you to enjoy your dock for fishing, reading or other activities despite the weather all year long.

Party decks are special dock units that include cooking grills, coolers, tables, bars and more. They can be disconnected from the main dock units and towed to the middle of the lake or river for the gathering. They can also have swim platforms attached to them and towed long to add another level of fun for the afternoon.

Modular floating docks are a great way to conveniently add a dock to a waterfront property. These systems are affordable, easy to install and take to worry out of regular maintenance. With these systems, a new dock can be installed and ready to use much faster and enjoying it for a long time is much easier.
