Deck Lights
From the early 1900s, Davey & Company has been producing a range of deck prisms to bring natural light down below. Manufactured in England these prisms are solid glass with either flat bronze frames, where the glass is rabetted in, or deep bronze frames for thinner decks. In both cases a marine quality black mastic should be used such as a polysulphide/polyurethane/MS Polymer to improve adhesion the glass should be abraded first where the sealant touches. Frames can be chrome plated to order or, in some cases, supplied in polished stainless steel. (AIS 316).
Rabetted Deck Prisms
In this style the glass is set first into the deck using a marine quality mastic and then a flat frame is positioned over the rim of the glass and screwed down. This is only suitable where there is sufficient depth of wood to support the weight of anyone walking on it.
Rabetted
Round Prism
Melon
The melon has the greatest light output, but also the greatest depth, so care should be taken when fitting above walkways or other areas to ensure adequate headroom.
Deep Frame Deck Prisms
The style of this prism is ideal for thinner decks such as steel, aluminium or fibreglass. The frame is fixed to the deck first and the glass is then set into the frame from the top using a good quality marine mastic.
