Wood Docks
Wood docks have their own beauty and strength. They are affordable to install and cost less for the initial installation. However, wood is not going to last forever, but it does last for many years with some upkeep. Wood will warp, rot, splinter, get bugs and such and will need some maintenance over time. However, it offers the natural beauty of the environment of the lake. Which is why many people still love the Wooden Docks. They can be a bit heavy when installing or fixing as the wood is usually treated. And, they will need to have parts and components fixed and replaced in time.

Metal Docks
Metal docks are usually made of Aluminum, so they cost more for just the basic materials to build the dock. However, they are basically maintenance free. They are the most durable material out there and offer a great amount of flexibility. And, they stay the coolest in the sun. That is compared to painted wood, stained wood, concrete, pavers and such that tend to absorb the heat of the sun more than that of an aluminum dock. The last thing you want to do after a nice boat ride or dip in the water is step out onto a hot dock.
With Aluminum docks, the most important part of the dock to ensure safety is the weld. Ensure you are working with quality products and welder to keep you and your friends and family safe while on the dock. The Aluminum docks are much stronger than that of a wooden dock. And, they are more lightweight, should you have to take your dock in and out for some reason.
