LOWDECK H4 Joists + DuoLift Modular Joist Cradles


In Australia Millboard is typically installed on treated pine joists. For low height applications or for those looking for a more robust solution we highly recommend LOWDECK H4 Joists which are rated for on-ground use. Used in combination with Millboard's DuoLift Cradles to allow drainage and height adjustablity, this offers the perfect solution for low-height applications, installing over concrete and waterproof membrances such as rooftops etc.

DuoLift Modular Joist Cradles

Introducing DuoLift – Height Adjustable Modular Joist Cradles for Ultra Low Decks

The DuoLift joist pedestal system is designed to make installation significantly easier, providing substantial height flexibility within four stackable components. DuoLift removes the common problem of having to order varying height pedestals for a single area.

Height-adjustable from a low 15mm profile with huge adjustment range of 45mm.

Strong construction for improved spans and fewer cradles required.

For use with H3 or H4 Treated Pine Joists or Hardwood up to 68mm Wide and compatible with LOWDECK Joists or Millboard’s Aluminum DuoSpan Joists.

DuoLift offers a perfect solution for installations on concrete slabs, rooftops, balconies and over waterproof membranes.

The Duolift Joist Cradle can be used by itself for Ultra Low Height installs or optionally extended with the modular accessories to achieve self-leveling functionality and additional height ranges up to 350mm.
