JV100 Bracket: Stronger Deck Joists, Stronger Railings

At J Vice, we design products that solve real-world building problems. One of the biggest issues builders face is retrofitting older timber decks that were never designed to hold modern glass or aluminium railings. With today’s increased wind loads and stricter compliance requirements, traditional brackets and strapping just don’t cut it.

That’s why we invented the JV100 Bracket a patented system built to strengthen deck joists and provide the secure connection railings need.

Why We Created the JV100 Bracket

As frameless glass and slimline aluminium balustrades became more popular, builders kept running into the same challenge:

• Old timber decks weren’t designed for heavy railings

• High wind zones demanded stronger structural support

• Retrofitting often meant complex engineering fixes or complete rebuilds

Instead of relying on multiple CPC40s or time-consuming strapping and bolting, the J Vice team developed a single, purpose-built solution — the JV100 Bracket.

The Benefits of the JV100

The JV100 Bracket is engineered for simplicity, strength, and compliance:

• Stronger Deck Joists – Reinforces boundary joists to safely support glass or aluminium balustrades.

• Patented Innovation – Replaces four CPC40s or strapping/bolting with one bracket.

• Time-Saving Install – Fits quickly on one side of the joist, reducing labour costs.

• Built for Builders – Tested and trusted for use in high wind zones and demanding retrofits.

• International Availability – Available now in California and New Zealand, with patent protection in place.

From Problem to Patented Solution

The JV100 was born on real job sites, listening to builders’ frustrations and solving a pain point the industry couldn’t ignore. It’s not just a bracket  it’s a game-changing structural solution that makes retrofits stronger, faster, and more cost-effective.

Build Stronger with J Vice

Whether you’re upgrading an existing timber deck or building new in a high wind zone, the JV100 Bracket delivers the strength and security your railing system demands.
