SHORESTATION SECTIONAL DOCK 

The ShoreStation Sectional Dock is an extremely versatile system that is very comfortable to walk on, easy to install and works for almost any type of lakefront. ShoreStation recently released their newest dock section models that now feature an all aluminum and power-coated deck and side board construction available in two color tone options. While maintaining many of the core qualities of their time tested classic sectional dock, they have improved the section design with a continued focus on a easy to use, maintenance free dock with increased strength and stability, more versatilely for layout configurations. Prior to the newest all aluminum section release the Classic dock system was once available in three model options; Nostalgic Cedar (all cedar), Aluminum with Cedar Side Boards and Aluminum with EON®. While these three classic models are still available by special order, ShoreStation will be phasing out the regular production of these models and moving towards a focus of the newest addition of the all aluminum sections. They continue to offer a wide variety of accessories that makes it easy to get creative and customize your dock layout. We have provided more information about each section style below along with available accessories.

ShoreStation Classic Dock is a free-standing dock system and the foot pads on each of the legs simply rest on the lake bottom. This allows the dock to work in difficult installation conditions such as steep drop-offs and rocky, uneven bottoms. The various leg frame and extension leg combinations allow the dock to install in water depths up to 12'.

You can choose to stain this dock, or leave it unfinished for the natural graying look. Either way you will be amazed by the durability of the western red cedar. 

SUPPORTS AND INSTALLATION

Stability to some is the most important feature of a dock system and sometimes it can be challenging to create a stable freestanding dock especially in deep water. ShoreStation has designed their supports for this dock with an A-Frame stance, so the deeper you go the wider the support becomes. This A-Frame design provides a wider base for a level of stability that you won't find with "straight leg" support designs. The dock support system is made up of three different components per support; the heavy duty galvanized steel leg frame with A-Frame design (#4 in above image), two aluminum legs with welded base pads (#5) and the galvanized steel brace with stainless steel clip (#6). The leg frames are now also available in aluminum as of 2017, but we still highly recommend the galvanized steel frame. The extra weight of the support helps to provide a very stable and sturdy dock. 

So many dock brands claim on the market to be the easiest dock system on the market to install and remove from the water. Yet many other brands come up short in comparison. The ShoreStation Sectional Dock is one of the only TRUE Tool-less install, adjustment and removal dock system. The mounting channel of the new section rests in the channel of the existing section. Once the two sections are in place, simply release the spring-loaded Dock Lever Locks and the two sections become one. Need to adjust leg height? just grab the spring loaded leg lever found on each side of the leg frame, set your height and release. No more lost tools or nuts & bolts on the lake bottom!  Most the in water Do-it-yourselfers and professional dock installers (including BL&D) both agree that Genuine ShoreStation Dock is a breeze to install and remove. Whether you prefer to work from the dock or in the water, complete layouts can be installed in half the time of many ordinary dock systems.

BoatLiftandDock.com Staff Review

 BW remarks -  Quality construction, one fastest setup and break down systems available for freestanding dock, easy, super quick tool-less leg height adjustment system with stability results not easily matched by others. 

      Conclusion: About as good as it gets when it comes to freestanding lake docks at a balanced price point. Once you install one, you will know how much easier it is compared to others.
