Raised Deck Solutions

Raised decking requires careful planning of the structure, finished levels, access, steps and edge protection to create a safe, practical and well-finished outdoor space.

Where a deck or raised platform is more than 600 mm above the surrounding ground level, additional planning considerations can apply, while the need for balustrades, guarding and handrails should be assessed according to the individual project and applicable Building Regulations.

Where required, we can design and install frameless glass, glass with posts, stainless-steel wire and other suitable balustrade systems as part of the complete decking installation.

For structurally demanding raised decks, we specialise in galvanised steel subframes, measured, cut, fabricated, welded and assembled on site to suit the individual project.

By planning the decking, supporting structure, steps and balustrades together, we can manage the complete installation as one coordinated project, with safety, structural performance and finishing details considered from design through to completion.

Ideal for decking, terraces and complete outdoor living spaces, integrated planters can help define different areas, soften architectural lines and create a seamless connection between decking, balustrades, seating and planting.
