Marine Hardware

Marine Latches Marine Hinges Screw-On Rail Mounts Universal Rail Mounts Storage Brackets

We offer high-quality marine hardware suitable for interior and exterior applications on boat doors, cabinets and hatches. Our flush-mount Southco and GemLux slam latches are stylish, easy to install, and tough. And they're available in both polycarbonate and electro-polished #316 stainless steel at prices well below what you'd pay for the identical products in any retail outlet I've seen (speaking of which, if you want big savings on a decent Attwood polyethylene slam latch, see our Specials Page). We also offer a selection of marine plastic and #316 electro-polished stainless steel hinges, along with #304 stainless steel piano hinges in three-foot and six-foot lengths.

And we've designed a selection of products made with King Starboard -- an amazingly tough marine plastic that's impervious to ultraviolet rays, rain, salt water and all that kind of stuff. These include storage brackets for swim and dive ladders, boat hooks, gaff hooks and the like, as well as product-specific and universal rail mounts -- all backed by our lifetime guarantee (for details, click here).


Just click on any link below for product specs, pricing and ordering information.

swim ladder storage

Armstrong Swim Ladder Replacement Storage Brackets

ladder

 

 

 

$14.95 Each Pair

Lifetime Guarantee -- Click here for details.

I have an Armstrong swim ladder on my own boat, and I love the thing. But what I hate are the crappy  injection-molded plastic storage brackets that go brittle in the sun and then just...break.

So I designed my own replacement brackets using 3/4" King Starboard, an extremely long-lived marine plastic. They hold the ladder in place nice and snug, and considering Starboard's excellent UV resistance, I expect they'll last a good long time. If I'm wrong and they don't last at least one year on your own boat, just return them with proof of purchase and I'll send you new ones at no charge.

Each bracket is pre-drilled for easy mounting, and all exposed edges have a smooth radius. Overall length is 4", height is 2.5", and thickness is .75". Fits any 2" diameter tube.

 


General Purpose 3" Storage Brackets

General Purpose Storage Brackets

Accommodates 3" diameter tubing.

$19.95 Each Pair

Lifetime Guarantee -- Click here for details.

We originally made these King Starboard brackets for a customer who had some big -- 3" diameter -- tubing he needed to secure some table pedestals on his boat. So I decided to put 'em up on the site, in case someone else out there needs something similar.

Actually, I can think of several mounting bracket possibilities, for things like gaff hooks, boat hooks, push poles for flats boats. If you're looking for something along these lines as well, drop me an email and let me know what you need and we'll see what we can do.

These particular brackets are pre-drilled for easy mounting, and all exposed edges have a smooth radius. Overall length is 6", height is 4", and thickness is .75". Fits any 3" diameter tube.
