Terrace and balcony thresholds

On a terrace or balcony, the primary aim is to remove the water from the surface as soon as possible enabling safe access and preventing water ingress into a building. These areas are often more exposed, receiving rainwater from the surface area plus other contributing areas, including run-down from the façade.

Raised or suspended deck structures

For a raised or suspended deck structure including permeable decking, open-sided drainage channels provide a path of least resistance to the discharge point, collecting water from both the surface and the sub-surface.
