The NEW Elevator®

Hanover® is pleased to provide an elevated pedestal system for those projects which require paver heights above 2" and up to 24". The new Elevator® System has features included that greatly add to the performance, ease and stability of the installation.

The Top Plate
The top plate is supplied with pads that are an integral part of the top. These pads will quiet and secure the paver to the pedestal. Rigid-to-rigid (pedestal-to-paver) hard surfaces can create noise and paver movement when pedestrians walk across. The pads will eliminate both conditions.


The Coupler
As part of the Elevator® System, Hanover® can provide a Coupler to increase the paver height by 2 1/2" - 4". Bracing is required for elevations above 16" and up to 24". Hanoverís Coupler includes a circular flange with multiple holes, or eyelets, for ease of tie bracing. This ring of eyelets around the entire coupler, as well as the holes in the base, will enable the installer to securely fasten braces quickly and easily. (Request installation details for horizontal and cross bracing.)

The NEW StayBar™
Because bracing is required for elevations above 16" and up to 24" when using the Elevator® Pedestal System, Hanover® offers the NEW StayBar™ which fits firmly between Elevator® bases to prevent movement of the assembly. StayBar™ provides adequate stabilization for higher elevated paver installations when used in conjunction with wire cross ties. Bracing should be achieved using a stainless steel 18 gauge wire, available through the MSC Catalog, part #31980188. Request from Hanover® installation guidelines for horizontal and cross bracing.

Height Adjustments
When height adjustments are needed, Hanover's Elevator® System is unique because there is no cutting required or use of concrete filler. Heights can easily be adjusted and readjusted by rotating the base. There is no need to start over as with other types of pedestal systems.

Hanover's Elevator® System can be used with all other Hanover® Pedestal Systems including the Compensator®. Hanover® Pedestal Systems are created to work together to accommodate a variety or roof slopes —  even those with unusual slope-to-drain configurations.

New Leveling Shims
Use of Hanover's new flexible rubber-like leveling shims will also provide installation stability for areas requiring finer, individual leveling. Leveling Shims are available in two thicknesses ñ 1/16" (black) and 1/8" (white).

Advantages
  • Padded top plate provides quiet, solid installations and eliminates paver movement.
  • Coupler Eyelets allow easier bracing for installations over 16".
  • Over 42 sq. in. of bearing area on Top Plate
  • Roof undulations and slope variations are easily accommodated.
  • Integral spacing tabs set uniform 1/8" space between pavers and aids with alignment.
  • All components are made of high density, durable, impact resistant polypropylene.
  • Can be placed over waterproofing assembly without causing damage
  • Flexible leveling rubber-like shims are available for finer, individual leveling.
Please Note: It is critical that Top units and Couplers have a minimum insertion of three threads of the unit to completely secure the pedestal and ensure stability.

Glacier White Paver

Hanover´s Glacier White paver surpassed the minimum requirements for solar reflectance of .65 and also passed the .90 requirement for emittance under the test protocol. more >>

Guardian™ Paver System

Severe site conditions have often ruled out the use of pavers on pedestals for beneath the surface water drainage. HANOVER® has developed a new roof paver system especially for the most severe conditions more >>

Paver Support Pedestals

The application of an elevated paver system provides the designer with new possibilities and advantages. HANOVER´s Roof Pavers and Pedestal Systems make roof and deck plaza areas attractive, serviceable and functional. more >>

Pedestal Pavers

The Pedestal pavers incorporate the idea of an elevated paver drainage system with the use of an integrally footed, concrete paver of the highest quality. more >>

Pavers for Roofs and Decks

The concept of utilizing concrete pavers as roof ballast, plaza deck and terrace pavers has created new opportunities for otherwise lost space. more >>
