Creating level, attractive surfaces for paving slabs, decking, or terraces can often feel like a daunting task, especially on sloping ground. Wallbarnâs self-levelling pedestals eliminate these challenges, making the process smooth, efficient, and long-lasting. With their clever design and reliable performance, theyâre a game-changer for all kinds of outdoor projects.
What Are Wallbarnâs Self-Levelling Pedestals?
Wallbarnâs pedestals are specialised supports used to elevate surfaces like paving slabs, decking, and terraces. These innovative structures are compatible with various materials, such as concrete, porcelain tiles, natural stone, and timber or composite decking systems.
By raising surfaces off the ground, the pedestals improve drainage and ventilation, avoiding problems like puddling or trapped moisture. Maintenance is straightforward too, as individual pedestals can be adjusted or removed without disturbing the rest of the structure.
Durable and Dependable
Wallbarnâs pedestals are crafted from tough, high-quality virgin polypropylene, ensuring they last for years to come. Built to handle extreme conditions, theyâre designed to withstand temperatures ranging from -40°C to +75°C and can support loads of up to 683kg per unit. This level of durability means theyâre ideal for even the most demanding projects.
Key Features That Simplify Your Project
1. Self-Levelling Technology
The standout feature of Wallbarnâs pedestals is their self-levelling head. This smart mechanism automatically adjusts to slopes of up to 5 degrees, ensuring a perfectly level surface without extra tools or hassle. For decking, theyâre designed to fit timber joists, making installation simple and secure. A rubber anti-shock pad also reduces noise and improves stability during use.
2. Adjustable Heights
With height options ranging from 5mm to over 1 metre, Wallbarnâs pedestals suit a wide range of projects. Whether youâre working on a low terrace or a high podium deck, you can easily adjust the height for precision and stability.
3. Designed for Heavy-Duty Needs
For projects requiring extra robustnessâsuch as those in high-rise settingsâWallbarn offers specialised options. These include fire-rated pedestals for improved safety and Mega Balance pads for greater load-bearing stability.
4. Versatility
From balconies and roof terraces to public spaces, Wallbarnâs self-levelling pedestals work across different types of surfaces and materials. Theyâre also compatible with Wallbarnâs aluminium rail system, adding further flexibility for decking installations.
Why Choose Self-Levelling Pedestals?
Here are a few reasons why Wallbarn pedestals are the ideal choice for outdoor projects:
- Improved Drainage: The raised design allows rainwater to flow freely beneath the surface, helping to prevent waterlogging and prolonging the lifespan of your installation.
- Quick and Easy Setup: The loose-lay system saves installation time. No mechanical fixings are requiredâeverything is held securely in place by the weight of the slabs or decking.
- Effortless Maintenance: Need to carry out repairs? No problem. Individual pedestals can be removed or replaced without disrupting the rest of the structure.
- Future-Proofed Design: Their versatility and durability mean these pedestals are a smart, long-term solution for all kinds of projects.
Easy Installation
Installing Wallbarnâs pedestals is straightforward. Simply place them loosely on a flat surface or waterproof membrane. The weight of the decking boards or paving slabs will keep them securely positioned. For decking, timber joists can rest directly on the pedestals or clip into Wallbarnâs handy rail system.
Their adaptability also makes them perfect for challenging projects, like single-storey extensions or rooftop terraces with limited access.
The Perfect Solution for Sloping Surfaces
One of the most frustrating problems when dealing with outdoor spaces is uneven ground. Wallbarnâs Balance self-levelling pedestals solve this by compensating for slopes of up to 5 degrees. For steeper gradients, you can pair them with Wallbarnâs heavier-duty slope-correcting Mega Balance pads.
