About Simpson Strong-Tie at Deck Builder Outlet
Simpson Strong-Tie is the standard fastener reference for deck builders, framers, and contractors in the United States. Their products appear in the structural requirements of most residential and commercial building codes, which means when an inspector asks what fastener was used, “Simpson” is the answer that closes that conversation.
DBO carries the Simpson products most relevant to deck construction and outdoor structures. The core structural screw line covers SDWS framing and timber screws plus the SDWH hex-head variant, all of which are code listed under IAPMO UES ER-192 for 2018, 2021, and 2024 IRC and IBC. The SD Connector screw is the correct fastener for achieving rated load values on any Simpson connector.
The Outdoor Accents collection is the decorative layer: black powder-coated connectors, angles, straps, and post bases that perform structurally and look intentional on exposed timber work. The Sage pergola system takes that one step further into a full outdoor structure kit. For applications anchoring into concrete, the Titen HD covers post base installation into poured pads and CMU.
IRC/IBC Code Listed
All structural screws are code listed under IAPMO UES ER-192 and meet 2018, 2021, and 2024 IRC and IBC requirements for most common wood framing applications. Accepted by building inspectors without supplemental documentation in the vast majority of jurisdictions.
No Predrilling Required
SawTooth point technology on the SDWS and SDWH eliminates predrilling in most wood applications, including Douglas fir, Southern yellow pine, and pressure-treated lumber. Reduces labor cost and time on high-fastener-count jobs.
ACQ-Resistant Coatings
DCU Quik Guard coating is engineered to resist the corrosive effects of ACQ-treated lumber. Where a coastal or wet application calls for more protection, the DCU stainless steel version uses Type 316 SS for full corrosion immunity.
Outdoor Accents: Structural and Decorative
The Outdoor Accents collection meets structural requirements while being designed to be seen. Black powder-coat finish, clean Avant edges, and matching connector screws turn exposed post bases, angles, and straps into design elements rather than utility hardware.
