What Are The Advantages of Metalpad For Paving?

Wallbarn has used its extensive knowledge and experience in supplying suspended paving systems to develop a Class A version for paving onto balconies and terraces.

Class A1 Fire Rated Paving Pedestals

Non-combustible, fully adjustable, Class A1 pedestal specially designed for high-rise balconies, terraces and flat roofs. 

Metalpad for Paving Advantages

• The pedestals are manufactured from 2mm thick galvanised sheet steel. The adjustable threaded stem is solid, giving very high weight tolerance
• The baseplate is circular and 150mm in diameter which gives greater lateral stability and distributes weight evenly
• The underside is smooth to prevent damage to the membrane beneath
• The perimeter of the baseplate is rounded to avoid sharp edges and also eliminate any chance of puncturing the sub-deck
• The headpiece is circular and 120mm diameter which gives an adequate surface is for tile to rest on
• The lugs are either 2mm or 4mm thick and integrated into the steel headpiece
• There are no brackets or “gaskets” clipped on. Positioning lugs are integrated into the headpiece
• The headpiece is self-levelling up to 5% in all direction
