Pedeck Cradle 1250 Adjustable Decking Cradle for 50mm Joists 14-50mm – Pack of 30

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 Adjustable Decking Cradle is a low-profile adjustable support system designed for 50mm decking joists, raised floors and compatible substructures.

Adjustable from approximately 14mm to 50mm, the cradle provides a cost-effective way to create accurate finished levels for decking and flooring across roof terraces, balconies, patios, gardens and suitable indoor applications.

Supplied in a pack of 30, the Pedeck Cradle 1250 features a quick adjustment system that allows individual support heights to be altered during installation. Compatible 20mm extenders are also available where additional height is required.

Adjustable Decking Cradle for 50mm Joists

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 is designed to support compatible 50mm wide decking joists.

Individual cradles are positioned beneath the decking substructure, providing support while allowing the height of the joists to be adjusted.

The finished decking can then be installed onto the supported substructure.

This makes the cradle suitable for creating raised decking across:

  • Roof terraces
  • Balconies
  • Patios
  • Gardens
  • Porches
  • Landscaped areas
  • Sheds and outbuildings
  • Suitable indoor flooring applications

Adjustable From 14mm to 50mm

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 provides an adjustable support height from approximately 14mm to 50mm.

This low starting height makes the cradle particularly useful where available build-up is restricted.

Typical examples include decking around:

  • Patio doors
  • Balcony doors
  • Roof terrace entrances
  • Low thresholds
  • Existing external surfaces
  • Restricted refurbishment build-ups

The height can then be increased up to approximately 50mm using the cradle’s adjustment mechanism.

Quick Height Adjustment

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 incorporates a quick adjuster ring that allows the support height to be altered quickly during installation.

This provides additional flexibility when levelling the decking or flooring substructure across an uneven or varying substrate.

Adjustment can also be carried out after sections of the substructure have been positioned, helping installers make final corrections to the support height without dismantling the complete framework.

Ideal for Low-Level Raised Decking

With a minimum height of approximately 14mm, the Pedeck Cradle 1250 provides a particularly low-profile method of supporting decking joists.

This can be useful where conventional decking supports or taller pedestal systems would create too much additional height.

Applications include:

  • Low threshold decking
  • Balcony decking
  • Roof terrace decking
  • Decking over existing patios
  • Garden decking
  • Courtyard decking
  • Raised external flooring

Extend the Cradle Height With 20mm Extenders

Where the standard cradle adjustment range is insufficient, compatible Pedeck Cradle 1250 20mm Extenders can be added.

Each extender adds 20mm of additional height to the cradle system.

Based on a 14-50mm standard cradle range:

  • Standard Cradle: 14-50mm
  • With 1 x 20mm Extender: approximately 34-70mm
  • With 2 x 20mm Extenders: approximately 54-90mm

Additional compatible extenders can provide further 20mm height increments where permitted by the system.

For higher configurations, the complete cradle arrangement should be checked for suitability for the required height, substructure and loading.

Ideal for Roof Terrace Decking

The Pedeck Adjustable Decking Cradle provides a practical support system for compatible roof terrace decking.

Individual cradles support the decking joists above the underlying roof surface, allowing the finished decking level to be created independently from the substrate beneath.

This can help retain an open void beneath the decking for drainage while allowing the supporting framework to be adjusted to the required level.

The complete decking and cradle arrangement should be compatible with the waterproofing and roof construction beneath.

Suitable for Balcony Decking

Balconies frequently have limited available build-up around door thresholds.

The low-profile Pedeck Cradle 1250 provides adjustable support from approximately 14mm, making it particularly useful for compatible balcony decking systems where minimising support height is important.

The balcony structure, drainage, threshold clearance and intended loading should all be considered when specifying the complete system.

Ideal for Decking Over Existing Patios

The Pedeck Adjustable Decking Cradle can be used to support compatible decking joists above a suitable existing patio or other solid surface.

The adjustable cradle allows individual support heights to be altered to help create a level decking substructure, even where there are minor variations across the substrate.

Compatible extenders can then be introduced where greater clearance is required.

Raised Garden Decking

The cradle system can also be used for compatible garden and landscaping projects.

Typical applications include:

  • Garden decking
  • Patio decking
  • Courtyards
  • Landscaped terraces
  • Porches
  • Outdoor entertaining areas
  • Sheds and outbuildings

The adjustable design provides more control over the finished decking level than a simple fixed-height support.

Creates a Void Beneath Decking

Supporting the decking substructure on individual cradles creates separation between the joists and underlying surface.

Depending on the available build-up, this void can provide space for:

  • Drainage
  • Cables
  • Small pipework
  • Other suitable services

The void also allows water passing through the decking to reach the drainage surface below.

Any services positioned beneath the decking should be appropriate for the application and should not obstruct drainage.

Raised Flooring Without a Traditional Levelling Screed

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 can also be used for suitable raised indoor flooring applications.

Where appropriate, adjustable cradles can compensate for variations in the underlying substrate, potentially reducing or eliminating the requirement for a conventional levelling screed before the floor substructure is installed.

This can reduce wet trades, material requirements and installation time where the cradle system is appropriate for the specified floor construction.

High Strength Decking Support System

The supplied technical data gives an individual cradle loading test result of 1,636 N per unit.

The wider system information also provides a stated average maximum loading of 16.3kN/m² (approximately 1,662kgf/m²) when using a minimum of six supports per square metre.

Actual support spacing and allowable loading should be determined according to the complete decking or flooring construction, joist spans, cradle configuration and project requirements rather than relying on a single headline load figure.

Manufactured From Recycled Plastic

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 features a recycled plastic body, providing a lightweight adjustable support for suitable decking and flooring applications.

Each cradle weighs approximately 0.133kg, making individual supports easy to position and adjust during installation.

Pack of 30 Adjustable Decking Cradles

Each pack contains 30 Pedeck Cradle 1250 Adjustable Decking Cradles.

The exact number of packs required will depend on:

  • Total project area
  • Joist spacing
  • Cradle support centres
  • Joist dimensions
  • Anticipated loading
  • Decking manufacturer’s requirements
  • Layout and shape of the installation

The supplied system loading information references a minimum of six supports per square metre for its stated 16.3kN/m² load rating.

At exactly six cradles per square metre, one pack of 30 would represent enough cradles for approximately 5m². This should not be treated as a universal coverage figure, as actual cradle quantities depend on the support layout required for the project.

What Is an Adjustable Decking Cradle?

An adjustable decking cradle is a support positioned beneath a decking joist or compatible flooring substructure.

Its height can be adjusted to help create an accurate finished level without having to construct individual fixed-height supports.

The finished decking or flooring is installed onto the supported substructure rather than directly onto the cradle.

What Size Joist Does the Pedeck Cradle 1250 Take?

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 is designed for use with compatible 50mm wide joists.

The complete joist specification, including depth, span and support centres, should be appropriate for the decking or flooring system being installed.

What Height Is the Pedeck Cradle 1250?

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 is adjustable from approximately 14mm to 50mm.

Compatible 20mm extenders can be added where a greater support height is required.

How Do You Adjust the Pedeck Decking Cradle?

The cradle incorporates a quick adjuster ring that allows its support height to be altered.

This makes it possible to fine-tune individual cradle heights during installation to help create an accurate level across the decking substructure.

Can the Cradle Be Adjusted After the Joists Are Installed?

The supplied system information states that the cradle height can be adjusted even after the substructure has been partially installed.

This can make final levelling easier when setting out the decking framework.

How Much Height Does the 20mm Extender Add?

Each compatible Pedeck Cradle Extender adds 20mm to the cradle system.

Based on the 14-50mm cradle range, one extender provides approximately 34-70mm, while two provide approximately 54-90mm.

Can I Use More Than One Extender?

Yes. The modular system allows compatible extenders to be added to progressively increase the support height.

For higher configurations, the permitted number of extenders and suitability of the complete system should be confirmed.

Can the Pedeck Cradle Be Used With Timber Joists?

The cradle is designed for compatible 50mm decking joists and can be used with suitable timber substructures where the joist specification and complete installation are appropriate.

Can It Be Used With Composite Decking?

The cradle can potentially support a compatible substructure for composite decking.

Compatibility depends on the joist or supporting framework specified for the particular composite decking system.

Can the Pedeck Cradle Be Used on a Roof Terrace?

Yes. Roof terraces are one of the listed applications for the Pedeck Adjustable Decking Cradle.

The complete cradle and decking arrangement should be compatible with the waterproofing system, roof construction, drainage requirements and anticipated loads.

Can It Be Used for Balcony Decking?

Yes. The low adjustable height makes the Pedeck Cradle particularly useful for compatible balcony decking, especially where available threshold height is restricted.

Can the Cradle Be Used Over an Existing Patio?

Yes. Decking over patios is one of the intended applications.

The underlying patio or supporting surface should be sufficiently solid, stable and suitable for the imposed cradle loads.

Can the Pedeck Cradle Replace a Levelling Screed?

For suitable raised flooring applications, adjustable cradles can compensate for variations in the supporting surface and may remove the need for a traditional levelling screed.

Whether this is appropriate depends on the complete floor construction and project requirements.

How Many Pedeck Cradles Do I Need Per Square Metre?

There is no universal cradle quantity that applies to every decking installation.

The supplied loading information references a minimum of six supports per square metre for the stated 16.3kN/m² system loading.

Actual cradle spacing should be determined according to the joist specification, span, decking system, anticipated loads and project requirements.

How Much Area Does a Pack of 30 Cover?

At exactly six supports per square metre, a pack of 30 would provide enough cradles for approximately 5m².

However, this is only an illustrative calculation based on the supplied load-test arrangement.

Actual coverage can vary significantly depending on joist centres, cradle spacing, perimeter details and the design of the decking or flooring system.

Adjustable 14-50mm Decking Cradle for 50mm Joists

The Pedeck Cradle 1250 Adjustable Decking Cradle for 50mm Joists provides a low-profile and adjustable support solution for raised decking and suitable flooring applications.

With an approximately 14-50mm adjustable height range, quick adjustment mechanism and compatible 20mm height extenders, the cradle provides flexibility for projects ranging from low threshold decking to more substantially raised installations.

Suitable for roof terraces, balconies, patios, gardens, landscaping and indoor flooring, the Pedeck Cradle 1250 is supplied in a convenient pack of 30 and provides a modular solution for supporting compatible 50mm joist substructures.
