Hello! @withered_preacher & @Sharkstar - I've not been around for a little while. Funnily enough I completely redid the decking last year because the wood had hit the end of its serviceable life (almost 15 years, to be fair).
To build it this time we used fixings supplied by Jacksons fencing - stainless self-countersinking torx head. I used easily over 300 of them and didn't have a single failure. https://www.jacksons-fencing.co.uk/product/sc_809902/60mm-decking-screw-stainless-steel-t25-torx-drive.pail-containing-200-pcs-driver-bit
For the underlying structure we used a range of fastenings, but I'd thoroughly recommend the TimbaDeck & TimbaScrew products from Screwfix.
Here's the fruits of my labour on this soggy spring morning.
