How to Install (3 Easy Steps)
1. Find Your Joists or Studs
Choose your starting point and mark the ceiling joists or wall studs with a chalk line. Install hidden starter clips (not included) on the chalk line, one on each joist or stud.
2. Fasten Boards with Hidden Deck Clips
Use standard hidden deck fasteners (not included) to lock each board in place. They create strong, consistent spacing and an invisible, floating-wood look. Cut boards to length as needed.
3. Apply Finish
Apply exterior oil or marine varnish to preserve the golden color, or leave it unfinished to age naturally.

What Does The Janka Hardness Rating Mean?
The Janka hardness test is the international standard for measuring the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear.
It's expressed in psi, or pounds-per-square-inch. The test measures the pressure required to embed an 11.28mm (.444 in) diameter steel ball into wood to half the ball's diameter. The measurement was developed to determine whether a species is suitable for use as flooring; however, we include it here and compare it to the rating of red oak to help you make a buying choice.
There is a difference between hardness and being difficult to work with. Generally speaking, the harder the wood the easier it is to finish and polish. Harder woods create good, solid long-lasting joinery in furniture.
The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain, and varies from piece to piece. So a Janka rating is an average of numerous tests performed on all directions and numerous pieces. Use the Janka hardness rating as guide, not a definitive answer.
