In modern landscape and architectural construction, the Floor Universal Support Adjustable—also known as an adjustable pedestal—has become a go-to solution for raising decking, paving stones, or tiles with precision and stability. These supports offer flexibility in height adjustment, ensure drainage, and simplify leveling on uneven surfaces.
Whether you're working on a rooftop terrace, a garden walkway, or an urban plaza, knowing how to properly install adjustable floor supports is critical for structural integrity and long-term durability. In this guide, we walk through a professional step-by-step installation process—and highlight how Zhejiang Trumshi Building Material Co., Ltd. delivers high-performance solutions for your projects.
Why Use Adjustable Floor Supports?
Adjustable floor supports are ideal for:
-
Creating raised flooring systems without complex substructures
-
Accommodating slope correction and ensuring a level finish
-
Improving drainage in outdoor and wet-area installations
-
Supporting heavy loads with modular strength and stability
Zhejiang Trumshi specializes in high-quality stainless steel and composite architectural components, including universal support systems that combine engineering precision with long-term performance.
Tools and Materials You'll Need
-
Adjustable floor pedestal (Trumshi universal support system recommended)
-
Spirit level or laser level
-
Measuring tape
-
Rubber mallet
-
Suitable surface covering (tiles, pavers, or decking panels)
-
Spacer tabs (if needed)
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Base Surface
Ensure the base surface (roof slab, concrete foundation, or sub-floor) is clean, dry, and structurally sound. Minor slopes can be corrected with the pedestal system; major irregularities may require a screed or leveling compound.
Step 2: Plan the Layout
Measure the layout according to the size of your pavers or decking panels. Mark the positions where pedestals will be placed, typically at corners and midpoints, depending on load requirements.
Step 3: Position the Adjustable Supports
Place Trumshi’s universal adjustable supports according to the marked layout. Their robust base and wide adjustability make them suitable for various flooring patterns and surface materials.
Step 4: Adjust Height
Turn the threaded column of each pedestal to reach the desired height. Use a level to ensure the top surface of all supports is even. Trumshi’s systems often include self-leveling heads or slope correctors, which simplify installation even on sloped surfaces.
Step 5: Lay the Surface Material
Carefully place your tiles, panels, or pavers on top of the pedestals. Use spacer tabs if necessary to ensure consistent gaps for drainage and thermal expansion.
Step 6: Final Check and Secure
Double-check all levels and alignment. In high-traffic areas or windy locations, consider using locking elements or edge restraints to secure the surface materials.
