Portage Lakes Docks
Metal Craft Stationary Docks are a popular choice for residents living around Portage Lakes. Stationary docks are perfect for areas where water levels fluctuate minimally during the season and require little to no maintenance during the boating season. Dock sections are modular and can be reconfigured and added on season after season. The all-aluminum construction allow for easy removal and re-installation year after year. Metal Craft decking is made from aluminum extrusions with a poly enamel finish featuring our non-skid technology providing sure footing when entering or exiting water craft. Metal Craft Docks require little maintenance and will last decades into the future.
