Dock Edge 8 in Polished Aluminum Flip-Up Dock Cleat

For boat owners who prefer the look of exposed metal, this Dock Edge flip-up cleat has a polished aluminum finish. It measures eight inches across and folds down when it is not being used to secure a line. The cleat is cast from marine-grade Almag 35 aluminum. Its hinged form avoids leaving the horns upright on a busy dock walkway.

The polished or burnished surface gives this version a different appearance from the white-coated model. Both use the same general flip-up arrangement for routine mooring. The cleat lifts when a dock line is needed and returns to a lower position after the line is removed. Installers should choose a secure structural location for the mounting hardware.

A dock cleat needs to match the intended line size and mooring conditions. The fold-down feature can be helpful on docks where people often step across the edge near the boat. The polished finish also pairs naturally with other metal dock fittings. See our mooring cleats and dock accessories for additional choices.
