Joists

The cross beams form the framework of your decking. They are installed perpendicular to the decking boards and have a length of 3 metres. The cross beams must be installed with a centre-to-centre spacing of 370.4 mm. The calculation tool automatically determines how many cross beams you need.

Pedestals

Decking pedestals support the cross beams and ensure the correct height of your decking. We offer adjustable decking pedestals with adjustment ranges of 19–30 mm and 60–87 mm. We also offer extension pads of 15 mm and 40 mm. These products make it easy to compensate for height differences in the subfloor and level your decking. The calculation tool automatically determines which decking pedestals and extension pads you need.
