Your Build

Ready for Estimate

Every dock is built to order. We price it after we see your shoreline — free, on-site, no pressure.

⚙️ Every dock rides on a galvanized steel frame we fabricate ourselves in Aurora, KY.

1Floating or fixed

Floating rides the lake level. Fixed sits on posts.

2Dock size

Our smallest platform is 12×16. Width goes up in 3′ and 4′ increments — we set the exact footprint on site.

3Boat slips

How many boats will call it home?

4Roof & upper deck

Gable is standard. A hip roof costs more — and it's the one people stop and look at.

5Decking

Composite and Thruflow are what we build on. Wood and aluminum available on request.

6Add-ons & upgrades

Standard already includes 8″ galvanized cleats, strip bumpers and a 1″ handrail. Tap anything you want on top.

What We Build

Our docks

Every dock is built to order, but nearly all of them start as one of these four. Pick the one that fits your water — we’ll size it on site.

Platform

No slip

An open deck with no slip — for swimming, fishing and sitting out on the water.

Smallest we build is 12×16
Widths in 3′ and 4′ increments
Add a roof, ladder or handrail

Single Slip

1 boat

One covered slip for one boat. The most common dock we put in.

Walkway plus one finger pier
Fits most V-hulls and pontoons
Boat lift optional

Two Slip

2 boats

Two slips side by side — room for a second boat, or the boat and the jet skis.

Walkway plus two finger piers
Popular with families sharing a dock
Jet ski port fits in either slip

Marina / Community

Many boats

Multi-slip docks for marinas, subdivisions and shared lake access.

Built to the site — as many slips as you need
Shared gangway and main walkway
We handle permits and anchoring

Not sure which one? Build it in the designer or see it in 3D — then we’ll come out and measure for free.

Our Work

Boat slips we’ve built

Every one of these came out of our own shop — steel we fabricated, set on this lake.

A covered Twin Lakes boat slip with a dark hip roof, gangway, swim ladder and wide walk-around decking — **Covered slip with walk-around deck**Hip roof over the slip, deck on three sides and a gangway back to the bank.

A Twin Lakes boat slip with a galvanized hip roof on open water under a blue sky — **Hip roof on open water**Galvanized frame and a hip roof — built to sit out where the wind gets at it.

A long aluminum gangway running from a riprap bank out to a covered Twin Lakes boat slip — **Gangway off a riprap bank**Long aluminum gangway from the shore to the slip — riprap and dock by the same crew.

A covered Twin Lakes boat slip and Thruflow walkway on Kentucky Lake in early morning light — **Thruflow walkway**Thruflow decking passes the light through and stays cool underfoot, wet or dry.

A public two-slip Twin Lakes dock with an aluminum walkway and handrails on both sides — **Public access dock**Two slips and a full-length handrail — built to take everyday public traffic.

Aerial view of a long V-shaped Twin Lakes walkway pier built out from a shoreline — **Walkway systems at scale**Hundreds of feet of walkway, engineered and set from our own barge.

Why Twin Lakes

We don't order our steel.We build it.

Most dock companies order parts and bolt them together. We fabricate our own galvanized steel right here at our facility in Aurora, Kentucky — which means tighter tolerances, faster turnarounds, and a dock that outlives the boat sitting in it.

✓On these lakes since 1986. We know how Kentucky and Barkley behave in every season.
✓In-house steel fabrication. No middleman, no waiting on a supplier.
✓Free on-site estimates. We come to your shoreline and tell you straight.
✓Insurance claims handled. Storm damage? We've done this hundreds of times.
✓Our own barge crew. Riprap and dredging without subcontracting it out.

⚓ Also owned and operated by Jimmy McNeely — same owner as Twin Lakes Mooring

🪨

Riprap

Stop the bank
from washing away

Riprap holds your shoreline in place season after season instead of letting it wash out from under you. It also makes a real difference in how the whole shoreline looks — most folks are surprised how much.

🚢

Dredging

Get your
water back

Sediment and debris build up until there isn't enough water left to use what you've got. We clear it out so your dock and your boat lift work the way they're supposed to.
