About

Trusted for Generations.

Engineered for the Water.

At Atlantic Aluminum Dock Products, we don’t just build dock gear— we engineer it to out perform.

Our team includes G6-certified welders with decades of hands-on experience in marine fabrication, delivering work that’s as technically precise as it is durable. Whether it’s a ladder, railing, or custom platform, our welds and materials are designed to hold up where others fail.

As a family-owned company founded by lifelong boaters and coastal residents, we understand what it takes to build products that can weather the elements and stand the test of time.

What started as a small South Florida operation has grown into a leading name in marine-grade aluminum fabrication, trusted by homeowners, contractors, and municipalities across the Southeast.

Meet the Founder:
Jeff Tellex

Raised on the waters of South Florida, Jeff Tellex grew up with a deep respect for the sea — and a drive to build better solutions for life on the water. A certified welder and proud member of the American Welding Society, Jeff combines hands-on craftsmanship with innovative thinking.

His most well-known invention? The FloatStep® Dock Ladder — a design that automatically lifts itself out of the water to prevent corrosion.

It earned the 2007 Innovation Award from the National Marine Manufacturers Association, and it’s still raising the standard for dock safety and longevity today.

Built on Innovation, Backed by Quality

From the very beginning, innovation has been at the core of what we do. Every ladder, gangway, dock, and accessory we fabricate is designed to solve a real-world problem — and to last for years without constant upkeep.
