What happens here
Once the dark gray composite board is perfectly aligned, the worker firmly presses it down and into its final resting position. The action involves pushing the board both downwards and slightly inwards. This technique ensures that the board is fully seated against the deck joists or any underlying supporting structures. The board appears to engage with a hidden fastening system, which allows it to snap or click into place without visible screws. The worker uses their fist to apply additional pressure, ensuring the board is completely flush and secure.
Goal: Firmly seat and secure the border board onto the deck structure
