As August rolls in, lakefront property owners face a predicament: peak boating season combined with unpredictable storms. Storms can bring high winds, sudden water surges, and choppy waves—all of which put strain on your dock.
Here's how to protect your dock from storms and keep your investment in prime condition.
1. Secure and Stow Loose Items
- Quick sweep: Remove movable items such as chairs, hoses, planters, and equipment and store them inland.
- Tie down essentials: If something must stay dockside—such as dock lights or ladders—secure them with durable straps or bungee cords.
2. Reinforce Anchoring & Post Stability
- Tighten connections: Walk the perimeter, check all bolts in stringer brackets, and tighten any that are loose.
- Leg and brace check: On auger-anchored docks, give each leg a firm shake to ensure it remains firmly embedded—reset and tighten if needed.
- Boat secured correctly: If not on a lift, ensure the boat is tied correctly to allow for storm waves. Check all ropes for wear.
3. Elevate Dock Height and Monitor Water Levels
- Pre storm adjustment: Ensure your dock is high enough that typical late summer waves won't wash over the deck.
- Easy aluminum adjustment: Thanks to Alumi-Span's lightweight anodized aluminum structure, leg-height modifications are quick and pain-free.
