Each of us dreams about carefree moments spent in the bosom of nature, when the sun lets through its warm rays and the wind lightly blows the space. However, we don't have such a possibility every day. And here our home gardens, terraces, balconies, loggias, etc. come to the rescue. In prepare the best places helps you pedestals for terrace tiles.

The basic finishing element of the above places is the floor. The simplest to install will be external tiles or deck tiles. We have many of them on the market, but mainly they are:

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Concrete pavers
  • Porcelain pavers
  • Stone tiles
  • Wooden floor deck tiles (pallets) etc.
  • Composite deck tiles

Pedestals for terrace tiles will help us install all of the above elements. They work perfectly on both large-size surfaces and small ones that we have at our homes and apartments.

Spacers for terrace tiles are divided into 2 basic types:

Paving support pads for terrace tiles have small heights from 2 mm to 16 mm with the possibility of stacking, however stacking more than 3 pieces is not recommended. They are best suited for mounting terrace tiles. Any type of tile that meets the strength parameters can be laid on such elements.

However, adjustable terrace pedestals have a much larger range, from 17 mm to as much as 950 mm. Thanks to such a wide range, they can be used almost everywhere.

All available pedestals for terrace tiles are briefly characterized below.
