Unideck®
What is Unideck®?
Unideck® is Bellingham Marine’s family of frame floating docks. A timber, aluminum or galvanized steel frame carries the deck and is supported by separate floats. The timber and steel versions are designed for protected and inland waters, and a well-designed, properly maintained Unideck® dock typically lasts over 30 years.
