Read More About Raised Flooring >

The two most common types of raised flooring are gravity held and lock down systems. Gravity held raised flooring systems (a.k.a. loose lay) are systems in which the floor panels rest on the pedestal head. The panels are held in place by their own weight with lateral location providing engagement between panel and pedestal head. These systems allow very quick and easy access to the floor void and the panels can be readily finished with factory bonded finishes. 

Lock down or screw down products are the second type. In this case the floor panel is screwed or locked directly to the pedestal head thereby holding the panel in place and also providing lateral location. This system provides a very solid and rock free floor with quick and easy access to the floor void. However these systems cannot accept factory bonded finishes.

Low profile raised flooring is also a good option for retrofits, or any building where there is low ceiling space.
