The Ecoscape Adjustable Pedestal (ECO171139KD) is engineered for professional deck installers and serious DIY enthusiasts who require a stable, level substructure for their composite decking projects. By providing precise height support between 1199mm and 1309mm, these pedestals eliminate the need for laborious timber shimming or site leveling; however, they require a solid, stable substrate like concrete or compacted gravel to perform as intended.

No, pedestals must be installed on a stable, solid substrate like concrete or a paving slab to prevent sinking or shifting.
The number of pedestals depends on your specific joist span requirements and the total area of your deck; consult your deck design plan for spacing guidelines.
Yes, they are designed for outdoor use and are constructed to resist decay and moisture-related damage common in subframe environments.
While minor adjustments may be possible, it is significantly more difficult to adjust once the deck boards are installed; aim for perfect leveling during the frame stage.
Ensure the base is on a solid, level surface and that the joist is properly seated within the pedestal head.
Clean any grit or debris from the threads and ensure the weight of the joist is not resting entirely on the threads while attempting to adjust.
Check that the joist is correctly sized for the pedestal head and use mechanical fasteners if the pedestal manufacturer specifies them.
Before installation, ensure your ground is compacted and stable. Place each pedestal on a flat surface, such as a concrete pad or a paver, to distribute the load effectively. Position your joists into the pedestal heads and check for levelness using a spirit level. Adjust the height as necessary by turning the pedestal nut until the bubble is centered. For long-term maintenance, occasionally inspect the joist connection points to ensure they remain secure. Ensure that no debris or mud buildup prevents the adjustment collar from turning if future maintenance or leveling is required.
