Non-Combustible Pedestal Paving System

Straightforward, robust paving system for waterproofed substrates.

Straightforward, robust paving system for waterproofed substrates

The Non-Combustible Pedestal Paving System offers a high-quality yet economical solution for creating raised paving areas on roof terraces, balconies, inset balconies and other external spaces.

Designed around non-combustible paving pedestals and achieving a Euroclass A1 fire rating, the system provides a safe, durable and versatile pedestal paving solution for both residential and commercial developments.

  • Fully non-combustible system achieving Euroclass A1 fire rating
  • Full system height build-up from just 30mm to over 500mm
  • Fast and simple two-step installation process
  • High-quality paving finishes available in a range of styles and designs
  • Enables efficient drainage beneath paving surfaces
  • Suitable for grid, stack and brick-bond paving layouts
  • Available with visual wind uplift restraint
  • 30-year warranty and 60-year design life*

For projects where non-combustibility is not essential, we offer a range of conventional pedestal paving systems providing greater flexibility. Alternatively, where additional structural support and stability are required, our TerraSmart Rail Paving System provides a versatile alternative to traditional pedestal paving systems.

System Variants

This system is available in four variants, each designed for specific project requirements.

Fixed Head

The Fixed Head variant is a practical and efficient solution for projects with flat or level substrates and minimal falls.

Best suited for: Flat terraces, balconies and podium decks.

  • Most popular option
  • Simple, rapid installation
  • Independently rotating paving spacers
Exploded render TerraSmart Pedestal Paving Support System

Self-Levelling

The Self-Levelling variant is the ideal solution for tapered waterproofing systems and sloping substrates, automatically correcting falls of up to 10.5%.

  • Best suited for: Tapered insulation and flat roof applications.
  • Suitable for tapered flat roofs
  • Slope correction up to 10.5%
  • Lockable self-levelling mechanism

Low-Height Stackable

The Low-Height Stackable variant provides a practical solution for areas with restricted height build-up requirements.

It can also be used alongside other pedestal variants to overcome localised height challenges.

  • Best suited for: Thresholds, door interfaces and low build-up balconies.
  • Super low-height system build-up
  • Support height from just 10mm
  • Stackable in 2mm or 10mm increments

Visual Wind Uplift Restraint

The Visual Wind Uplift Restraint is designed for roof terraces and balconies exposed to higher wind loads.

Project-specific wind uplift calculations are recommended to ensure sufficient restraint performance. RYNO can assist with these calculations.

  • Suitable for high wind applications
  • Subtle mechanical restraint mechanism

Pavers remain removable for maintenance access
