Truss Pipe Docks

Aluminum Truss Pipe Docks

R&J Machine docks are a result of over 45 years of quality workmanship. All of our aluminum docks are constructed with 6061T6 marine grade aluminum. Our heavy duty welded aluminum truss design allows us to span up to 16’ between legs. Our heavy duty corner extrusion, that accommodates 2 3/8” outside diameter pipe leg, features full length welded gussets in all corners and replaceable leg holder bolt assembly. Our Aluminum Truss Pipe Docks have a freeboard height of 15-18” from the waters surface.

All of our docks are available in frame only configuration or with 2’ removable decking panels. Our decking is available in Western Red Cedar, PT Sienna  Decking and Pro PVC decking. All of our decking panels are locked in place using easy to remove full length hold down trim strips. This prevents your decking panels from coming off in rough water conditions, while enabling you to remove your panels in the fall without getting into the water. Our docks also come with stainless steel hardware.

All of our docks purchased with decking come with fascia board at no additional cost.  Our 2 3/8” pipe leg is sold separately on a per foot basis. So you only pay for the exact length needed. We also have a complete line of dock accessories such as dock bumper, cleats, ladders, flagpoles and steps.

Wheel In Dock Option

This is an excellent option for someone with fluctuating water levels or for easy removal in the fall. A hand crank enables you to raise or lower the dock easily, whether it is for the purpose of moving your dock out into deeper water or into the shore for winter removal. The PVC wheels work well on hard gravel or sand bottoms.

Fish Friendly Dock Structure – Pipe docks have minimal contact with the lake bed because only the base of the legs come in contact with the lake bottom. They provide minimal shading of aquatic plants and the height  can be adjusted with water fluctuation. Pipe docks allow the water to flow freely beneath the framework while still providing a shaded, protected area for fish to gather.
