External Wall Fire Review (EWS1) and Balconies
Post-Grenfell, building regulations have been in flux as the industry and Parliament look to ensure that such a tragedy cannot happen again in the future. Such root and branch change takes time, of course, and the result is many homeowners caught in limbo and unable to sell their high-rise properties due to lenders reluctance to bear the potential risks.
In an attempt to unblock the property market, the External Wall Fire Review (EWS1) process was created by RICS and the BSA. Progress has been slow, at best, and combustible balconies have been causing a perhaps unforeseen problem.

Another Fantastic Terrace Deck Installation
We love seeing our products in-situ in balconies, terraces, and walkways so were overjoyed to receive some great photographs from our approved installer, Alu-installations, of a great terrace deck they had just installed.
Our 20mm Textured Grey Junior Flat Boards integrated perfectly with this stunning domestic renovation project in Caterham.

Decking Board, Joist, And Gutter Sample
It is crucial that our customers are able to easily understand our products in detail, and to know how the features of the AliDeck range work together. AliDeck are very happy to build desktop-sized samples to send out to our customers to help them know that they are making the right choice.
We recently constructed and sent out a nice sample consisting of our 20mm Junior Board, 50mm Low Joist, and our Balcony Drainage System to demonstrate how positive drainage can easily be achieved with the AliDeck System.

AliDeck Training Academy In Demand
With aluminium decking fast becoming the de facto standard for balconies, there has never been a greater need for competent and knowledgeable installers to meet demand.
We are proud to offer our AliDeck Training Academy at our Rochester HQ to help our customers become fully acquainted with all aspects of our range of products. It was great to see a large recent class at the Training Academy, getting hands on with the AliDeck System.
