Minipad – Ultra Low Height Adjustable Pedestals
From £1.70
Wallbarn Minipad 10-20mm, 10-25mm, 22-30 & 28-40mm Adjustable Paving & Decking Pedestal
The Wallbarn Minipads are a smaller height pedestal suitable for suspended paving or decking systems. They have been developed for customers who require a solution to areas where restricted and very low height thresholds exist but where minor alterations of height are still required to achieve a completely flat and seamless finish. They support paving slabs, promenade tiles & decking joists on flat roofs, balconies, terraces and podium decks.
A 5mm extension plate which is fitted to the bottom of the pedestal is also available and can be used on any of the MiniPads.
Special handle grips have been incorporated into the design to help installers fit their fingers into this tight gap and can turn the pedestal to adjust the height. Adjustment can be made whilst the slab is in situ, so delays by constantly lifting the slab to change the height are avoided.

When using the paving headpiece, the lug fittings on the headpieces act as a straight paving guide, so all slabs will follow a uniform line. The Decking headpiece acts as a cradle to hold the joist. The stems are telescopic, so users can turn the pedestal until it “bites” to the correct height.
This is a suspended system – the weight of the slab or deck, holds everything in place.
Even flat roofs are built to a small fall to allow adequate drainage. Minipads help to achieve a completely flat upper paving surface. Positioning lugs create a clear spacing between each slab which allows drainage and gives a clear, uniform paving line between slabs. The rainwater runs between and under the slabs, so there is no standing water left on the surface. They create a cavity between the sub-deck and the paving slabs which helps ventilate the structure and allows services such as pipes and cables to be hidden from view.
