The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) regulates the water levels, so keep this in mind when determining the best type of dock you need that fits your lifestyle.

Stationary Dock

Sometimes referred as standing docks is designed for areas with large waves to easily pass through the legs and can withstand the roughest conditions. Stationary docks are placed on wooded pilings with permanent bases to avoid corrosion. It is also recommended to have shoreline stabilization for a strong retaining wall when using a Stationary dock.

Floating Dock

Great for deep water and water level fluctuations. Works best in an area where the dock will remain in the water all year long. A "U" or "T" shaped design is commonly used if the area is exposed to heavy waves from boat wakes. Floating docks are anchored by cables, ramps,  or anchors.

Portable Dock

Sometimes referred as wheeled boating dock offer wheels so that the dock can easily be transferred or removed from the water when necessary. Conditions have to be right for this type of dock and require either a gradual slope, fairly firm lake bottom or minimal elevation at the bank.

Boat Dock Materials

Consider your location when selecting the right type of boat dock materials on Norris Lake. The right dock should match your lifestyle, location and personal taste. Wood docks offer a natural and rustic look to any waterfront home but often need regular maintenance. Aluminum docks are low maintenance, don't rust and can withstand major impacts. The combination of both wood and aluminium offer the best of both worlds!
