About this product
Designed for those areas where there is an extremely minimal step-down from the house or apartment block to your patio area, this product consists of an engineered extruded aluminium joist and nylon base clips, providing a fixed height pf 35mm (1 3/8 inches) top of aluminium joist height.– meaning that a typical decking board arrangement can still be installed at less than 60mm (2 1/4 inches) over your concrete slab or tiled area. With the major components being aluminium and nylon, there is no problems with rust, rot, or “moisture-wicking” from a timber batten into your decking boards, thus ensuring longevity of your decking boards. The nylon base clips can be fixed to your concrete or tiles using Soudal adhesives, eliminating the need for penetration of the base surface – tests have demonstrated that the adhesion and longevity of use is more than adequate in all but the most stringent of situations (eg cyclone or tornado areas).
- The Patio Deck Kit provides a fixed height of 35mm (1 3/8 inches) to the top of the aluminium joist – the lowest height of any off-the-shelf decking sub-structure system on the market
- Patio Deck Kit enables deck height with decking boards as low as 55 mm (2 1/4 inches)
- Optional Patio Deck Kit Height Adjuster provides an adjustable top of joist height of up to 68 mm (2 1/2 inches)
- Engineered aluminium profile for extra joist strength
- Won't rust like steel
- Won't rot like timber
- Zero possibility of moisture transfer that is prevalent through using timber battens/joists on to concrete
- In most cases, base clips can be adhered to concrete/tiles with use of adhesives, meaning you do not need to penetrate your concrete or tiled surface/membrane
- Easy to install for the Pro or Handyman
- Easy to cut aluminium joist using a fine tooth aluminium cutting blade
- Both Patio Deck Kit and Patio Deck Kit Height Adjuster can be fixed to the concrete or tiled surface by using a 8mm masonry anchor
