Angled decks may require using right and left skewed joist hangers. These hangers are bent to 45 degrees and can be installed with joist hanger nails using the same method as straight joist hangers. Angled joist hangers should be available at your local lumber yard for 2x6 and 2x10. Double right and left skewed joist hanger are also available for angled beams but are relatively expensive. Make sure that all of your deck hardware and fasteners are triple zinc galvanized or stainless steel so they are compatible with ACQ lumber. Never cut, bend or modify deck hardware for alternative uses.
