Modern balcony featuring durable Ipe hardwood decking boards for a premium natural look

Ipe decking (General)

"Stunning result and surprisingly fast to install!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐★ 4,7/5
"To be honest, I was a bit apprehensive about laying a hardwood deck, but this clip system is a game-changer. No visible screws and the boards are automatically perfectly spaced. The Ipé timber is absolute top quality—perfectly straight with a beautiful deep colour. The deck looks incredibly sleek without any screw holes ruining the aesthetic. The extra cost for the click system is worth every penny!"

Title: "Architectural masterpiece in our garden"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5.
"For our new modern villa, we were looking for a terrace that radiates calm and luxury. These Ipé decking boards with hidden fixings met all our requirements. The boards are extremely stable and the wood feels incredibly solid. What I particularly like about this system is that the timber can move naturally without screws loosening or snapping. A long-term investment we are absolutely delighted with."
– The Thompson Family, Hartlepool
 
Title: "Best grade of Ipé I’ve seen in years"
⭐⭐⭐⭐★ 4,5/5.
"As a landscaper, I work with Ipé frequently, but the quality from Hardwood Discount is true FAS grade. Very little colour variation and practically no warped boards. The clip system is intuitive and easily saved me 30% in labour time compared to traditional screwing. A must-buy for anyone prioritising quality and a clean, high-end finish. Highly recommended."
– James, Garden & Design Ltd.

Important for installation: * Always ensure the ends of the decking boards rest on the subframe. This prevents the joints from becoming loose and ensures that the lines of your decking remain clear in the long term. You do not need to use double clips here; one clip on each side is sufficient. Thanks to the click system, you can easily create your own laying pattern (random pattern). 
* Tighten the screws in a single smooth motion and do not stop halfway. If you stop halfway, there is an increased risk of the screw breaking. Thanks to the special drill bit and the use of a good (impact) screwdriver, pre-drilling is not necessary; the screws can be screwed into the wood effortlessly.

"Not a screw in sight—what a result!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I was initially torn between traditional screwing or this click system, but I’m so glad I chose the latter. The main advantage is that you don't see a single screw head in the beautiful Ipé timber. The clips automatically ensure the correct 5mm spacing, so your deck ends up perfectly straight without any measurement errors. It took me half the time I usually spend on pre-drilling and countersinking. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a clean, modern look."

Title: "Finally a system that handles the natural movement of Ipé"
⭐⭐⭐⭐★
"As a professional, I work with hardwood every day. Ipé is incredibly hard and can move significantly due to weather conditions. Many clip systems fail after a year, but these steel clips from Hardwood Discount are rock-solid. They give the board enough room to 'breathe' without the connection becoming loose. The FAS-quality of the timber combined with this system creates a deck that lasts for decades. My clients are particularly impressed by the 'hidden' finish."
– Johan, J.R. Landscaping Kent
 
Title: "Luxurious look and barefoot-friendly"
⭐⭐⭐⭐★
"We wanted a luxury wellness area by our pool, and these Ipé decking boards with the click system complete the picture perfectly. The biggest plus? Since there are no screws in the surface, there are no splinters around drill holes. This makes it perfectly safe to walk on barefoot, which is ideal with the kids. The wood has a beautiful, even colour. The only thing is that you have to align the first row very carefully, but after that, you just click the rest into place. Top quality!"

Important points for installing ipe decking
* The clips also act as spacers. These create a gap of approximately 8mm. Ensure that the clips fit snugly into the groove of the boards.
* Tighten the screws in one smooth motion and do not stop halfway. If you stop halfway, the risk of the screw breaking increases. Thanks to the special drill point and the use of a good (impact) screwdriver, pre-drilling is not necessary; the screws screw effortlessly into the wood.

Luxury adjustable sun lounger made of durable Ipe hardwood for a premium spa-like garden experience

Loungers of Ipe planks

"Creative masterpiece: Handmade Ipé sun loungers with a seamless finish!"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5."We’d ordered some decking, and as luck would have it, there was very little off-cut. My partner suggested making a couple of sun loungers out of this wood. Thanks to the ingenious clip system, you can’t see a single screw hole in the wood; the finish is completely ‘concealed’. I think the result is of a standard you’d normally only see in luxury resorts."– Robbert, the proud designer Hardwood discount  Sometimes you come across projects that really make your heart beat faster. These bespoke sun loungers are the ultimate example of this! This project shows that with Hardhout Discount’s Ipé decking boards, you’re not just building a terrace, but creating pure works of art for your garden! Well done and thank you for the review.

At Hardwood Discount I ordered a veranda with different sizes. The standard roof did not fit in my garden. For Hardwood Discount it was no problem to make a roof with the sizes that were suitable for my garden. The beauty of this roof is that it is made with mortise and tenon joints. The floor is finished with Ipe decking, screwed invisibly. The steel doors to close the roof are on order. The advantage is that everything is ordered at Hardwood Discount.

"Easy mounting, stunning result" ⭐⭐⭐⭐★ 4,8/5 As you can see in the photos, we installed the boards from the bottom up to ensure the cleanest possible finish at the top of our structure. It worked out brilliantly. Installing from the bottom up is definitely doable. For the first section, however, it’s advisable to work in a team of three to fix the first two rows in one go. After that, it’s easy enough for two people. The tip to place clips at the butt joints (end connections) as well was worth its weight in gold! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have realised until halfway through or at the very end... and the lines wouldn’t have stayed as neat over time. For the best result, we lightly sanded the slats, wiped them down, and then treated them with hardwood oil. We opted for a dark oil, which gives the wood an even more beautiful and warmer colour. We are absolutely delighted with the final result!" – Otto S, Kensington London Hardwood discount  Thank you for the detailed review! Indeed, it's not just our Ipé oil that is suitable. Our oil has a low pigment content; however, if you choose an oil with a higher pigment concentration, the wood will take on a darker tone. This is exactly the kind of personal touch you can add to your own project. Enjoy your new structure – the final result looks truly stunning!"
