Product Information

Full details

The Polycon Luxe Aluminium Grating Corner Threshold Channel Drain is designed for homeowners and contractors seeking a seamless drainage solution for patios, gardens, and driveways. This corner unit allows your threshold drainage system to navigate ninety-degree turns while maintaining a clean, professional appearance with its sleek black aluminium grating. While it provides excellent structural integrity, it is important to note that this is a specific component designed exclusively to connect Polycon Luxe system lengths and is not a standalone drainage unit.

FAQs

What does the Class A15 rating mean?

The Class A15 rating indicates that the drain is tested to support a load of up to 1.5 tonnes, making it safe for pedestrian traffic and light private vehicles.

Can I use this with other brands of drainage channels?

No, this corner unit is specifically designed for the Polycon Luxe range and may not provide a secure or watertight fit with other drainage systems.

Is the black finish prone to peeling?

The black finish is designed for outdoor durability; however, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washers directly on the coating to maintain its appearance.

How do I secure the corner piece?

The unit connects directly to your existing channel lengths; ensure it is properly embedded in a mortar or concrete base as part of your overall drainage installation.

Is this suitable for a steep driveway?

While the product is strong enough for driveways, you must ensure the entire drainage run is installed with a consistent fall toward an appropriate outlet or soakaway.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling at the corner junction

Check that the connection between the channel and the corner unit is fully seated and that the drainage run has a slight downward slope to facilitate flow.

Grating feels loose or shifts under weight

Verify that the corner piece is adequately supported by a solid concrete bed and that the surrounding paving is tightly abutted to the unit.

Debris buildup under the grating

Remove the aluminium grating section and clear out any sediment or organic matter from the internal channel base to restore full flow capacity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Seamlessly integrates with existing Polycon Luxe channel runs
  • High A15 load capacity supports residential vehicle traffic
  • Professional black finish provides a modern, discreet look
  • Robust construction resists environmental weathering
  • Prevents water pooling at 90-degree corner thresholds

Cons

  • Compatible only with the Polycon Luxe range
  • Requires proper sub-base preparation for installation
  • Not suitable for heavy commercial vehicle traffic

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this unit, ensure that your existing Polycon Luxe channels are leveled and properly bedded in concrete. The corner piece slots between two lengths of channel; ensure that the connection is snapped into place firmly to maintain the watertight seal. For optimal performance, the surrounding paving should be laid flush with the top of the grating to prevent trip hazards. Care involves periodic inspection of the grating to ensure it remains free of debris, such as leaves or grit, which can obstruct water flow. A quick rinse with a garden hose once a season is typically sufficient to keep the system functioning at peak efficiency.
