Lifetime Warranty

We’ve designed and built our floating dock hinge system to last. With all steel construction, with either stainless base metal or a hot-dipped galvanized coating, our latches come with a lifetime guarantee.

Unmatched Strength and Durability

Constructed from plate steel, professionally welded, and finished in either stainless or with a hot-dipped galvanized coating, our dock latches are ready to withstand the harshest conditions.

Watch our floating dock hinges in action as they hold together a floating platform in the extreme conditions of Hurricane Elsa. With 35 degrees of articulation, our latches will allow your platform to adapt to waves, tides, wakes, and changing water levels.

Safer Connections

Pin-style hinges require you to meticulously maneuver your floating dock into position while simultaneously lining up a pin to hold your platforms in place. Our solution eliminates the pin. No more smashing your fingers between docks or fighting wakes and waves. Bring your platforms together, let our latches do the work.

Save Time

Make your floating platform assembly take only a fraction of the time. The self-closing mechanism of our floating dock hinge will latch on automatically, leaving your free to move onto your next task in seconds. Never drop another pin, bolt, or tool into the water again your have to retrieve or replace.

Customization Options

As a full-service job shop and manufacturer, we have extensive customization capabilities and can implement our latching system across a variety of different applications. If you can imagine a situation that would benefit from our self-latching system, we can build it.

Works perfect for connecting my floating dock to the main dock. Both are built with 2×8 boards. These fit better than expected. Pictures make them look bigger than I thought. Worked out being a perfect fit. Excellent workmanship and heavy duty to handle all the ski boat’s constant waves. We’ll work the cost. Order a pair. They are worth it!!!!!!!!

Wish I had found this product years ago. It has change everything about my dock installation. No more getting on my hands and knees to put the pins in, no more dropping the pins in the freezing water, no more pinching my fingers. Just pull the docks together and they latch together. same for separating them just lift the latch on one side and then on the other and their free to move. Also they will not come apart in rough water, big wake coming by, no problem they stay connected. these are heavier than all the other connectors, workmanship great! they will last for longer than my docks.

This is the kind of product that is difficult to find. I greatly appreciate the strength and quality of dock hinge and the ease of disconnecting it at the end of the season. The fact that it is American Made goes a long way with me.
