Aluminium Decking FAQs
1. What are the benefits of aluminium decking boards?
Aluminium decking offers several advantages, including exceptional durability, resistance to rust and corrosion, low maintenance requirements, and non-combustibility. Unlike wood or composite decking, aluminium does not warp, rot, or attract pests, making it a long-lasting choice for various environments
2. Are the aluminium decking boards fire-resistant?
Yes, these aluminium decking boards are non-combustible and have been tested to meet fire safety standards. Please contact us if you need the certification.
3. Do aluminium decking boards get hot in direct sunlight?
While all decking materials can absorb heat, aluminium has the advantage of dispersing heat more quickly due to its thermal conductivity. This means aluminium decking tends to stay cooler underfoot compared to materials like timber or composite decking, even in direct sunlight.
4. How slip-resistant are aluminium decking boards?
Aluminium decking boards are designed with safety in mind. These boards feature a slightly textured surface to enhance slip resistance, achieving low slip potential in both wet and dry conditions. This makes them great for balconies.
5. How do I maintain and clean aluminium decking?
One of the key benefits of aluminium decking is its low maintenance. Regular cleaning with warm soapy water and a stiff broom is typically sufficient to keep the decking looking its best. For more stubborn stains, spot cleaning with a mild detergent may be necessary. It's important to avoid using abrasive cleaners or tools that could damage the powder-coated finish. Our useful guide can help you understand how to maintain these boards.
6. Is aluminium decking environmentally friendly?
Yes, aluminium is a sustainable material. It is 100% recyclable without loss of properties, and many aluminium decking boards are made from recycled materials. Choosing aluminium decking contributes to reducing environmental impact and supports sustainable building practices. Many architects are also choosing to spec more "eco-conscious" choices.
7. Can aluminium decking be used in coastal areas?
Absolutely. Aluminium's natural resistance to corrosion makes it an excellent choice for coastal environments where salt exposure is a concern. The protective powder-coated finish further enhances its durability against harsh weather conditions.
8. How does the cost of aluminium decking compare to other materials?
While the initial cost of aluminium decking boards can be a bit higher than timber or composite options, its longevity and minimal maintenance requirements often result in lower long-term costs. The durability and extended lifespan of aluminium decking provide excellent value over time.
