Get ready for a summer full of adventures with a floating dock—whether it's boating, fishing, swimming, or just soaking up the sun in your favorite suit. The Connect-A-Dock 1000 Series system is built to last and designed to grow with you. A customizable design lets you create the perfect setup for your needs with the flexibility to expand as your family grows.
The Connect-A-Dock Straight Dock Bundle 1000 Series Model SPK1015 is a basic straight design ideal for small boats, canoes and kayaks with a wider pathway providing an even sturdier base. This very long dock spans 5 feet across and 26 feet 3 inches in length perfect for multiple watercrafts or fishing off the dock. This dock is great for ponds or residential properties on small bodies of water.
The 1000 Series is a low profile floating dock best suited for smaller bodies of water or coves that are protected from large waves. It floats 8 inches above the water and is the perfect platform for swimming and fishing.
A floating dock moves up and down with the water, thanks to its special float chambers that hold air to help it float better. The main float sections are molded of maintenance-free polyethylene with connector sockets and slip-fit connectors to make it easy to assemble and easy to clean with just a hose or whisk broom. If needed, a gentle non-scratch soap can be used safely to clean your dock too. Who loves low-maintenance?
You can choose a base design or create your own. Contact Family Backyard Store at (800) 407-2478 or email contact@familybackyardstore.com to go over the possibilities. We will help you find the perfect match for you. Need help picking? We've got you! We'll package together all of the components you need to start your summer fun. This kit comes with pole connectors for bodies of water less than 12 feet deep.
The Connect-A-Dock is tough, lasts a long time, and can be changed to fit your needs—you can even add more sections later on.
To help keep the dock at a safe temperature the gray color reflects the sunlight. This polyethylene dock has UV protection, and the color is permanent - so need to paint! Live your best summer life without the maintenance and explore the T-Model 1000 Series today!
The Connect-A-Dock works both in freshwater and saltwater with stainless steel rust-proof components to hold it in place.
Kayaks, canoes, Jon Boats, and skulls can easily launch and pull off this low profile dock. To make your life even easier attach the YAKPort Kayak Launch. This add-on component connects to your 1000 Series Model dock.
A Kayak Rack KR1020 is also available to store your yaks on your dock. Forget the long haul back to land!
Each float section holds up to 690 pounds and is stabilized with special connectors and anchoring forming a solid, worry-free structure. Extra Floats EF1010 (sold separately) can be attached to add an additional 60 lbs of extra buoyancy to further stabilize your dock.

What is a floating dock?
A floating dock adjusts to fluctuating water conditions. The unique design of the float chambers traps air on the surface of the water for additional buoyancy. As the water levels change, the dock raises and lowers.
Can I reconfigure or move a Connect-A-Dock?
Yes, the Connect-A-Dock can be reconfigured, added to, and moved to another location. The unique connection system is very flexible, and you can reconfigure the same components into many different shapes. (i.e. T, F, L, swim platform, etc.) Different configurations may require additional float sections and/or connectors. These can be added at any time.
Does the dock need to be moved out of the water during different seasons?
Freezing temperatures will not harm the Connect-A-Dock; however, with shifting ice, we recommend removal for the winter months. See the Winterization Policy for additional details.
Does the dock come in other colors?
The Connect-A-Dock is gray. This color reflects sunlight and maintains a safe temperature when in contact with bare skin. This polyethylene dock has UV protection, and the color is permanent.
Can the dock be painted?
No, Connect-A-Doc does not recommend painting the dock. One advantage of this product is that it never needs painting.
How is the dock cleaned and maintained?
Docks can be cleaned with a garden hose and whisk broom. A mild detergent or biodegradable, non-abrasive cleaner can also be used. Get these products at your local automotive, Home and garden, or discount store.
Can the dock be used in salt water?
Yes, the Connect-A-Dock is resistant to oil, gas, and saltwater. In saltwater applications, Connect-A-Dock recommends using stainless steel components or non-corrosive materials to anchor the dock.
Is the surface slippery?
The top surface has a molded, slip-resistant wood grain texture to prevent slipping. Always use caution around the water for your safety.
How many people are needed for assembly?
One person can install float sections, but two or more are recommended. Of course, additional help makes lining your dock up with shore and anchoring easier. Family Backyard Stores offers optional installation and assembly services.
How long does it take to install the dock?
The installation process may vary depending on the size of the dock you are installing. The installation and assembly company will give you an estimated time frame for your specific project.
How big can you make the dock?
The Connect-A-Dock can be assembled as long and as wide as you wish. The 60” x 45” x 10” (152.4 cm x 114.3 cm x 25.4 cm) modular sections allow you to configure to almost any size or design. Connect-A-Dock recommends a minimum of 45″ (114.3 cm) wide for installation.
How much weight can each float section support?
Each Connect-A-Dock 1000 Series float section can support up to 690 lbs. (313 kg)
Each Connect-A-Dock 2000 Series float section can support up to 2500 lbs. (1133.98 kg)
Extra Flotation can be added to support additional weight.
A 1000 Series Extra Flotation will add 60 lbs. (27.22 kg) of buoyancy to a 1000 Series Float Section.
Use 2000 Series Extra Flotation to add 300 lbs (136.08 kg) of buoyancy and stability to your floating docks and where excessive weight is placed. Examples: Under heavy gangway or storage boxes.

Connect-A-Dock 1000 Series: The walking surface is typically 8″ (20.32 cm) above the water.
Connect-A-Dock 2000 Series: The walking surface is typically 17″ (43.18 cm) above the water.
