Discover step-by-step how to install an AridDeck aluminium decking on a terrace, balcony or waterproof pontoon.

Creating the structure

Ideally, AridDeck is installed on a wooden structure, such as wooden or composite deck boards. The joists should be spaced 50 cm apart, and the structure is protected from the elements because the boards are watertight. However, we recommend a structure made from Class 4 treated pine (as a minimum).

All applications are possible, including residential applications where maintenance needs to be reduced to a strict minimum. The resulting surface is immediately usable, non-slip, aesthetically pleasing and highly resistant under load.
Marine-grade aluminium is particularly recommended for seaside or lakeside terraces.
