Whether you're into fishing, boating, watersports, or simply lounging by the shore, adding quality dock accessories can make your life easier and your loved ones safer.

Essential ShoreMaster Dock Accessories
At Shore Shack, we believe that the perfect dock is a haven for waterfront enthusiasts – a space for doing the things that make you feel alive. That’s why we carry a comprehensive range of ShoreMaster dock accessories to help you transform your waterfront into a versatile and enjoyable space tailored to your needs and preferences.
Protect Your Investment: Dock Bumpers and Fenders
No matter how experienced and skilled you are, a particularly windy day or unexpected current shifts can make docking a tricky endeavor. In fact, a study by the Cardiff University Seafarers International Research Centre (SIRC) found “collision, close quarters, and contact” to be the most common types of maritime accidents (SIRC, 2018).
Protect your boat and dock from accidental bumps and scrapes, and save money on costly repairs with ShoreMaster’s range of bumpers and fenders. Made from non-marring, high-impact polyethylene resin that absorbs and dissipates impact, they come in different configurations (vertical, horizontal, and corner) to protect boats in vulnerable transition zones. Polyethylene is one of the most significant and useful polymers, boasting good flexibility, chemical resistance, lightweight properties, and high-cost performance (Wang, Y., et al, 2023).
While ShoreMaster dock bumpers are specifically designed for their Infinity Dock Systems, you can use adapters to mount them on other docks. Contact us today for more information on the ideal dock bumper package for your setup.
Easy Access Solutions: Dock Ladders and Steps
Whether coming up from a refreshing swim or boarding your boat, dock ladders and steps provide a secure and convenient way to get in and out of the water. ShoreMaster’s Pivoting Dock Ladder features a vertical pivoting action and locking pin, allowing you to flip the ladder up when not in use. Available in 3-, 4-, and 5-step configurations, these ladders are constructed from marine-grade aluminum with slip-resistant threads.
Meanwhile, the ShoreMaster Quick Steps are versatile, all-terrain steps that provide easy access to any dock or shoreline. They come in 4- and 6-step configurations and feature a pivoting hinge design for the handrails, enabling easy adjustment to nearly any slope. Connect multiple sets of Quick Steps together for longer, steeper banks and create a convenient walkway from the lake house to the shore. Dock steps, landscaping steps, or shoreline access, the possibilities are endless with ShoreMaster Quick Steps.
Enhance Your Dock Experience with Furniture and Benches
Forget about hauling chairs and tables from the house and transform your dock into the ultimate waterfront haven with the ShoreMaster dock furniture range. The collection includes swivel chairs, loungers, dining sets, and lake-view benches – all built to withstand harsh marine environments. The seating options are made with quick-drying materials optimized for outdoor use and feature contoured seats and backrests for ergonomic comfort.
Whether you fancy having romantic dinners on the water’s edge, breathing in sunsets to decompress, or snuggling up next to a fire table after an all-day boating excursion, we have the furniture that allows you to have the perfect retreat – all without leaving the dock.
Illuminate Your Dock: Solar Lighting Options
With ShoreMaster's lighting options, you can easily find your slip and stand out as one of the most attractive setups on the lake. Their Solar Dock Lights, for example, are mounted directly on the dock leg caps, resulting in an unobtrusive profile with no wires, no tripping hazards, and no wasted dock space. Available in warm white and cool blue, these lighting solutions allow you to extend your waterfront activities well into the night while instantly enhancing safety and ambiance.
From pathway lights to underwater dock lights, create a magical atmosphere that entices you to do more of what you love. Explore our range of ShoreMaster lighting options today and liven up your waterfront.
Custom Storage Options: Keep Your Dock Organized and Clutter-Free
A well-organized dock is not only more aesthetically pleasing but also safer. ShoreMaster watersport racks provide easy storage and access for paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, and other waterfront toys. These racks are vertically adjustable to make loading and unloading quick and easy and feature integrated bungee holes for secure storage. Choose between a single or double rack and attach them anywhere along the dock perimeter of any Infinity Dock System to suit your specific configuration.
For avid anglers, ShoreMaster offers single or four-rod holders featuring an upright, secure design that prevents tangling and sideways leaning. Their collection of holders can also accommodate umbrellas, flags, fishing nets, brooms, and boat hooks. Meanwhile, ShoreMaster multi-purpose hooks provide a straightforward storage solution for swim towels, life jackets, wet suits, and hoses to keep your dock completely organized and clutter-free.
