E-BRS Paver Pedestal Installation
When you look at a finished porcelain paver deck, it’s easy to miss the precision-engineered structure below. A high-performing paver pedestal system does far more than hold pavers in place; it protects waterproof membranes, manages drainage, stabilizes the surface, and speeds installation.
Paver Pedestal Components
In this E-BRS installation, nearly every component of Buzon’s paver pedestals is on display, from U-PAD rubber pads to PB pedestals, E-BRS aluminum joists, EPDM shock absorbers, and specialty connectors like the PB-KIT-2, E-BRS-WALL, and E-BRS-TOP-LINK.
The Backbone: PB-Series Adjustable Pedestals
Every E-BRS installation begins with the PB pedestal—strong, adjustable, stable, and engineered to carry everything above it.
Snapping It All Together: PB-KIT-2 Joist Fastener
This simple, press-on connector secures Buzon joists to PB pedestals, no tools required. Compatible with E-BRS joists for porcelain, stone, wood, and composite decking.
E-BRS Easy Rail Aluminum Joists
The E-BRS Easy Rail System provides a high-performance structural base for ceramic, natural stone, and concrete pavers. It’s designed for installers who want speed, accuracy, and structural rigidity, especially with large-format tiles.
Why Designers Choose the E-BRS Joist System
- Perfect for large or elongated pavers (120×120 cm, 30×120 cm)
- Overhang capability for cleaner edges and faster finishing
- Straight, reinforced joists for predictable leveling
- Anodized finish resists chlorine, seawater, salt, and concrete exposure
The E-BRS Easy Rail System works seamlessly with Buzon PB-Series paver pedestals to create rigid, adjustable frameworks across any surface.
U-PAD Rubber Pads and EPDM Shock Absorbers
Buzon U-PADs sit beneath PB pedestals, and EPDM shock-absorbing strips sit atop the joists. Together, they protect, reduce noise, and stabilize the deck system.
Why They Matter
- Protect: U-PADs prevent membrane punctures and can be paired with U-TABS-FLAT for low-profile assemblies, while EPDM strips safeguard joists and pavers.
- Reduce noise: The 10 mm U-PAD can cut noise transmission by up to 19 dB, with EPDM strips providing additional vibration dampening.
- Improve stability: U-PADs create a nonslip surface beneath pedestals, while EPDM strips reduce paver movement along joists.
E-BRS-WALL Spacer
When joists run parallel to a wall or parapet, the E-BRS-WALL spacer keeps a consistent 3/16 inch (5 mm) drainage gap, allowing water to flow while stabilizing the last row of tiles.

E-BRS-TOP-LINK Connector
The E-BRS-TOP-LINK makes joining joists at angles between 45° and 90° fast, secure, and precise. Ideal for complex layouts, curved decks, or angled transitions.

Complete Paver Pedestal System Working Together
A pedestal deck system is only as good as its parts, and Buzon’s ecosystem is engineered so each piece enhances the next:
- U-PADs protect and quiet the assembly
- PB pedestals provide height, strength, and adjustability
- E-BRS joists ensure precision and rigidity
- EPDM strips & drainage holes manage vibration and water
- Smart connectors like PB-KIT-2, E-BRS-WALL, and E-BRS-TOP-LINK solve real installer challenges
Combined, these components create the most versatile, durable, and installer-friendly paver pedestal systems available.
Why Buzon Leads the World in Paver Pedestal Innovation
Since 1978, Buzon has set the standard for adjustable paver pedestal systems, and today remains the most complete and fully engineered solution available. Every component is designed to work together, including pedestals, joists, rubber pads, spacers, and specialized connectors that solve real installation challenges.
For architects, builders, and installers who demand reliability, adaptability, and long-term performance, Buzon is the original screwjack pedestal, and still the benchmark.
