Product Information

Full details

The Ecoscape Composite Decking Adjustable Pedestal is designed for professional deck installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to create a perfectly level substructure for composite decking. These pedestals offer a robust solution for joist support, allowing for precise height adjustments between 272mm and 329mm, ensuring structural stability on uneven ground. While these pedestals provide excellent durability and load-bearing capacity, they require a solid, stable base such as concrete or existing paved surfaces to ensure long-term performance.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these pedestals be used on soil?

No, these are intended for use on firm, stable surfaces like concrete, paving, or existing structural decking.

What is the height adjustment range?

This specific model adjusts between 272mm and 329mm.

Do I need to fix the pedestals to the ground?

In most deck applications, the weight of the frame and decking boards holds the system in place, but you may choose to anchor the base for extra security on elevated structures.

Are they weather resistant?

Yes, they are designed specifically for outdoor environments and are resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations.

Can I use these with timber joists?

Yes, these pedestals are compatible with both timber and composite joist systems.

How far apart should I space the pedestals?

Follow your specific decking board manufacturer's guidelines for joist spans to determine the correct spacing between pedestals.

Troubleshooting

Deck surface feels uneven after installation

Use a spirit level on your joists and adjust individual pedestals by rotating the height collar until the entire frame is level.

Pedestal sinking into the surface

The base surface is too soft. Place a concrete paving slab or high-density pad under the pedestal to distribute the weight more effectively.

Difficulty adjusting height

Ensure there is no dirt or debris caught in the thread of the adjustment collar; clean the threads and apply a light silicone lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Precision height adjustment within the 272-329mm range
  • Simplifies installation of level decks on uneven terrain
  • High load-bearing capacity for secure joist support
  • Durable, weather-resistant build quality

Cons

  • Limited to specific height range requirements
  • Requires a solid, non-compressible surface for base placement
  • Needs precise alignment for optimal weight distribution

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the pedestals, first clear the installation area of debris. Place the pedestals on a firm surface; if the ground is soft, you must provide a solid pad or footing to prevent the pedestal from sinking. Place your joists into the head of the pedestals, then rotate the collar to adjust the height until the joists are level. Once the level is verified, double-check that every pedestal is in firm contact with the joist.

These pedestals are compatible with most standard timber or composite joist systems. For care, ensure the drainage remains clear around the base of the pedestals to avoid standing water buildup. Periodically inspect the deck for any settling after the first year of use and adjust if necessary.
