The Ecoscape Adjustable Pedestal (ECO151089KD) is an essential component for professional landscapers and DIY decking installers who need to create a perfectly level foundation on uneven terrain. These pedestals provide a heavy-duty support system for joist substructures, ensuring long-term stability for composite decking boards, though users should note that they require precise initial calibration to ensure load distribution across the entire frame.

While the capacity depends on the distribution, these pedestals are designed to support standard residential deck loads when installed according to the manufacturer's layout guidelines.
It is not recommended to place them directly on loose soil. Use a concrete paver or a solid, compacted gravel base to prevent the pedestals from sinking over time.
Calculate the total area of the deck and refer to the joist layout plan. Pedestals should typically be placed at intervals determined by the joist strength and material spacing requirements.
Yes, they are manufactured from durable outdoor-grade materials designed to withstand exposure to UV radiation and moisture.
While it is possible to make minor adjustments, it is highly recommended to finalize the height before fastening the decking boards to ensure structural stability.
Check that all pedestals are tightened and properly weight-bearing; you may need to add additional pedestals to reduce the span between supports.
Ensure the base surface under the pedestal is solid and not sinking; adjust the individual pedestal heights systematically starting from the highest point of the ground.
To set up the pedestals, place them on a firm, level surface—such as concrete pavers or a compressed gravel pad—to prevent sinking. Once the base is secure, position the joists across the heads of the pedestals. Rotate the adjustable collar to dial in the desired height, checking with a spirit level frequently. Periodically inspect the deck for any signs of settling, especially in the first season after installation. Ensure the pedestals remain free from heavy debris or standing water accumulation to maintain long-term integrity.
