Connections

Aluminium joists.

Guidance for specification option:

Aluminium joists mimic the build of traditional timber substructure but with many key advantages:

  • Can achieve ultra-low height thresholds. As little as 55 mm total buildup depending on board choice.
  • Will not rot, warp or bend like timber joists.
  • 100% recyclable material.
  • Aluminium will not expand and contract like timber joists.
  • Lightweight and easy to work with material.
  • Special headpiece on our pedestals to accommodate the aluminium joists.
  • Depending on board choice, we have a number of hidden fixings available – i-Fly, 4 Hook, Remo.


Composite joists.

Guidance for specification option:

Composite joists are sturdy and suitable for use with almost any board on the market.

  • Will not rot, warp or bend like timber joists.
  • Dimensions 3600 x 38 x 88 mm.
  • 3.7 kg/m (linear).
  • Suitable for decking joists/sub-frame.
  • Compatible with our pedestals to lift to required height.
  • Depending on board choice, we have a number of hidden fixings available – i-Fly, 4 Hook, Remo.


iDecking EasyChange.

Guidance for specification option:

The EasyChange i-Decking system uses a hidden fixing that allows for the boards to be unlocked using a key. This is suitable for when access to the sub floor for maintenance or repairs is needed.

  • Sustainable, non-rotting decking system.
  • Integrated substructure and deck board.
  • Clean lines, uninterrupted surface.
  • Composite, bamboo and tropical hardwood options available.
  • Bare foot friendly.
  • Suitable for low thresholds (whole system from 83 mm).
  • Faster, easier installation.
  • Suitable for domestic or commercial use.


iDecking EasyClick.

Guidance for specification option:

The Easyclick i-Decking system uses a hidden fixing that allows for the boards to be clicked into place. This makes for a dramatically easy and faster installation.

  • Double aluminium rail substructure system.
  • Profiled rail clicks into headpiece of adjustable height pedestals without need for mechanical fixings.
  • Aluminium rail with integrated clips to secure and opposition boards.
  • Boards extruded with special profiles to fit into clips.
  • Self-aligning system drastically reduces errors.
  • Faster installation.
  • No top fixings mean no surface holes, splits or lifting.
