What Are Wallbarn Pedestals?

Wallbarn pedestals provide a cutting-edge solution for creating hard landscaping surfaces. They are compatible with a range of materials, including concrete paving slabs, porcelain tiles, natural stone, and decking systems made from timber, composite, or metal.

By elevating surfaces, these pedestals improve drainage, promote ventilation, and protect against issues like standing water. Their flexibility means they can be easily adjusted or removed for maintenance, making them a future-ready choice for any project.

Durable and Reliable Design

Made from high-quality virgin fibre polypropylene, Wallbarn pedestals are built to last. They meet rigorous technical standards and are capable of supporting up to 683kg per unit. Additionally, they are designed to perform reliably in extreme temperatures, from -40°C to +75°C, ensuring longevity in even the most challenging conditions.

Key Features of Wallbarn Pedestals

Self-Levelling Capability

The self-levelling headpiece is a standout feature, with lugs arranged in a crucifix formation for precise placement and efficient water drainage. A rubber anti-shock pad enhances grip and reduces noise for both paving and decking installations. The lugs are also specifically shaped to accommodate timber joists, streamlining the process for decking projects.

Adjustable Heights for Every Need

With a range spanning from 5mm to an impressive 1,020mm, Wallbarn pedestals cater to virtually any project requirement. They allow for precise height adjustments, ensuring a completely level finish regardless of the terrain.

Heavy-Duty Performance Options

For projects requiring additional strength and safety, Wallbarn offers specialised solutions. This includes Class A1 fire-rated pedestals for high-rise applications and Mega Balance pads for extra stability in paving and decking systems.

Advantages of Using Wallbarn Pedestals

• Enhanced Drainage and Ventilation: Keeps surfaces dry and prevents waterlogging.
• Quick Installation: The design allows for efficient, hassle-free assembly with no need for mechanical fixings.
• Future-Proofing: Maintenance is simplified, as individual pedestals can be adjusted or removed without affecting the overall system.
• Versatility: Suitable for various materials and compatible with Wallbarn’s integrated rail systems.

Installation Made Easy

Wallbarn pedestals are loose-laid on a flat surface or membrane. The weight of the paving slabs or decking boards holds everything firmly in place, ensuring the membrane beneath remains intact.

For decking installations, joists can rest on the pedestals or clip directly into Wallbarn’s 2-metre aluminium rail system. This adaptability allows for use in hard-to-reach areas, such as single-storey extensions or terraces with low height thresholds.
