For Paving

Self-levelling headpiece incorporates 4 x positioning lugs (fins) laid out in a crucifix formation set towards the edges.
The four positioning lugs (fins) creates a drainage gap of 4mm between the tiles/pavers. This is to allow “The Key” to be used to adjust the height of the pedestal without having to lift the tile/paver.
The headpiece was created to allow up to a 5% or 2.86° slope correction in all directions.
The lugs (fins) separate paving slabs and tiles on the headpiece to allow sufficient drainage between slabs. This creates a uniform paving line so the slabs are laid completely straight
A rubber anti-shock pad is part of the headpiece which has a series of ridges to give better grip to the slab and help insulate against vibration and noise travelling through the pedestal.

For Decking

The lugs (fins) are set out towards the edges of the headpiece giving a gap between them to house a timber or composite joist
Decking boards are then fixed to the timber joist frame. So there is no need to cut furrings – simply adjust your pedestal height and allow the self levelling head to correct the fall for drainage.
The auto-correcting head makes installing decking systems much faster than traditional methods
The Anti-shock shim on the headpiece grips onto the joist better and makes for an easier installation.

Rail System

The Universal Headpiece has been specially designed to be used with any of Wallbarn’s aluminium rails / joists.
The lower height aluminium Box Rails are perfect when a low height paving or decking system is required.
The taller aluminium I-Plus Rails are capable of large spans with minimal deflection.
A paving head is available which fits onto any of the rails as part of a paving system.

Mini Mega Balance

The Mini Mega balance has been developed to create a larger height range for lower height thresholds. And converting 3 different product codes into one product. Simplifying the range and giving the greatest flexibility and range to contractors.

The Mini Mega Balance covers heights from 25mm to 75mm.
The Mini Mega Balance starts at height of 25mm with the central stem telescopically adjusts up to 37.5mm. Simply add Half Dome for adjustable height between 37.5 to 50mm.
Use a Dome for adjustable height from 50mm to 75mm
Using the extending Dome and Half Dome gives flexibility when you are unsure of height thresholds required.
The Dome and Half Dome can be used on the whole Mega Balance range to add heights of 25mm and 12.5mm respectively.
*(Maximum of three extenders can be used on any one pedestal)

Grey & Black Nut

The Grey Nut

Each pedestal is self-levelling as the standard configuration. To make it a fixed head setting, simply use “The Grey Nut.”

To enable this, insert The Grey Nut into the centre of the headpiece between the marked sections and apply firm pressure. The arrows on The Grey Nut should align with the existing black moulding in the central section of the headpiece. Once in position, the headpiece becomes securely locked and fixed.

The Black Nut

The Black Nut is occasionally used when working with the Mega Balance Clip pedestal. By placing the Nut into the central part of the headpiece, it allows you adjust the height by twisting the stem of the pedestal.

This is particularly handy when using lower height pedestals and for when the pedestal is in situ with the aluminium rail/joist already connected.

The Key

Mega Balance pedestals are designed for durability and ease of use. They allow for in-situ minor levelling adjustments without needing to lift the slabs. Common issues in suspended paving areas, such as rocking or dipping slabs due to structural movements or external forces, are addressed efficiently with “The Key”.

This tool enables users to adjust the pedestal height directly through the headpiece, restoring a flat, correct level quickly and safely. This method not only speeds up the process of achieving the correct paving level but also significantly enhances health and safety by reducing the need to manually lift heavy slabs, thereby minimizing the risk of injury and damage to the paving surface. Mega Balance provides flexibility, efficiency, and safety benefits to facility management teams and property owners alike.

Clip Head Piece

The Mega Balance Pedestal is available with the “Clip” Headpiece. This headpiece is ideal, when using with our Aluminium Box or I-Plus Rails / Joists. Noggins can be used and supported by the headpiece to create a connected substructure that gives the best lateral strength and stability.

The headpiece helps with a seamless connection without the need for mechanical fixings for paving and decking substructure projects.
Produces a raft type structure for heavy weight support.
Significantly increases lateral stability and weight distribution across the deck, gives scope for variety of furniture and object build up onto structure.
Special outer ledged profile for seamless connection
Allows the aluminium rails / joists to simply click into place and add noggins, running perpendicular to the main rails / joists.

Dome Extenders

There are two Dome Extenders that can be used on any of the pedestals in the Mega Balance Range. These are ideal to take with any order of Mega Balance pedestals to add flexibility whilst on site. It is common for heights not to be have measured correctly or the specification to have changed quickly. Quite simply, these Dome Extenders are a get out of jail free and prevent delays on site.

The Dome extends the height of any Mega Balance pedestal by 25mm.
The Half Dome extends the height of any Mega Balance Pedestal by 12.5mm.
Three Dome Extenders can be used on any one pedestal without affecting structural integrity
