    I recently had my dock re-built- with grandkids running and jumping off into the lake I wanted to have a cleat that would not stick up to catch small toes yet be able to secure watercraft to the dock- I bought four of these cleats only to find out I needed two more- my grandchildren think that they are great- and so does their grandfather- a very very good product

    A toe saver

    Great for saving toes. Can't seem to tie the boat up as tight as with a fixed cleat.

                    Had to purchase hardware (bolts) to install. Makes sense due to different sizes of boards on docks. I used 3" lag bolts w/washer & nuts.
                    Check out your location/construction on dock to be sure you can use.
                    Ran into problem securing cleats from under dock due to dock construction.

                      I installed these at both of my docking locations. Good quality product and straight forward installation. They have eliminated the trip hazard of my original stationary cleats that were in the walk area due to the narrow dock walkways.

                        Is the cleat mounted backwards in the picture? I mounted mine the opposite way so the flip up cleat would be rigid (and there is a "dock edge" on the base opposite of what is shown)There are no directions included.

                          I think it is shown backwards in the picture. I mounted mine so the cleat flipped up toward the water (not away from) in order to be in the vertical rigid position when in use.

                          If your mounting to wood 2"x decking use stainless steel wood screws. If your mounting to composite decking use stainless steel machine screws on the cleat side and fender washers and nuts on the underside.
