Uptec Pedestals
Build perfectly level decks from 1 1/8″ under deck clearance to 6” or more, directly over sloping or uneven ground with these decking supports.
Just two pedestals and one size extension ring cover the entire range. This unique design feature of Uptec pedestals not only minimizes installation time but more importantly, resolves the frustrating and costly issue common with most other multi-component pedestal systems in accurately estimating pedestal height requirements and subsequently dealing with unforeseen height variability on site.
Simply add in 1 1/8” tall extension rings to build up the height. Turn the threaded central column with the top entry tool for incremental height adjustment.
Switch instantly between fixed or self-leveling heads with up to 5° slope adjustment, using the included headlock – no separate pedestal models or add-in components required.
Noise absorbing heads include inbuilt spacer tabs with quick twist removal when not required.

SUPAS Pedestal
SUPAL Pedestal
Constructing elevated decks with Uptec pedestals is similar to construction with Eterno pedestals with the exception that only two base pedestals are used, starting with the SUPAL for the range 1 1/8” to 1 11/16”.
Beyond this height, only the pedestal model SUPAS is used, with SUPAR extension rings locked in place to build up the height in increments of 1 1/8”. The central screwed column permits incremental height adjustment when adding extension rings.
While extension rings can be used to build the height beyond 5 ½”, above approx. 4 ¾” it will generally be more cost effective to switch to Eterno SE or NM pedestals due to their taller (5” or 6 ½” respectively) extension elements.
