Balcony Decking
At MyDek we specialise in high-quality, non-combustible balcony decking, and in providing solutions for both balcony decking replacement and for new-build balconies tailored for the high-rise community.
Balcony decking provides a safe, durable and attractive surface for residential balconies, apartment developments and high-rise buildings. Whether you’re replacing combustible timber decking as part of a remediation project or specifying decking for a new-build balcony, choosing the right system is essential for fire compliance, slip resistance, durability and long-term maintenance.
Since MyDek’s inception in 2019, our mission has centred on enhancing safety in apartments and high-rise buildings by supplying A-rated non-combustible balcony decking systems featuring superior slip-resistance, durability, and exceptional load-bearing capacity.
Balcony decking remediation
To address external fire safety concerns and protect residents in high-rise buildings, the government introduced new stringent fire-safety regulations for external walls as part of the Building Safety Act. The regulations included a requirement for all residential buildings over the height of 18m need to be built with non-combustible materials, including balconies.
Balcony decking replacement has become a major focus across the UK following these changes to fire safety regulations. Many existing balconies contain timber or combustible composite decking that may no longer meet project requirements.
Replacing balcony decking can improve:
- Fire performance
- Resident safety
- Slip resistance
- Building appearance
- Long-term maintenance costs
MyDek’s aluminium and non-combustible composite decking solutions provide the perfect replacement for non-compliant balcony decking. Our balcony decking systems are A rated for fire compliance with Part B legislation, meaning that we can help building owners and developers ensure that their balcony decking is fully compliant with the new legislation and will last for decades to come.

MyDek provides a wide range of balcony decking options to ensure you can find the perfect solution for your project.
To ensure your replacement balcony decking compliments the rest of your design scheme, our aluminium balcony decking boards can be coated in a range of modern colours and can also be finished with our special Naturo woodgrain pattern. Samples can be ordered directly via our website and come with a colour swatch card to help you select the perfect shade for your project.
Meanwhile, our Luxura range is a contemporary balcony decking product offering a safe, practical alternative to hardwood timber. With a natural textured woodgrain pattern available in 2 colours, Aged Oak and Hickory, this board is the go-to choice for balcony decking. Luxura Deck 200 provides the ideal solution where a timber-like appearance is desired without compromising on safety or performance.

Our innovative installation systems are compatible with all decking products from MyDek and are designed to help provide quick, accurate installation of our balcony decking.
BoxRail is a durable, non-combustible aluminium support system engineered for fast and accurate installation of balcony decking, whilst SpeedRail is designed for direct fixing to steel beam flanges up to 12mm thick, to provide continuous substrate support and speed up installation. MyDek’s Joist Hanger can be used to securely fix steel joists to existing steelwork, further supporting quick and efficient installation on site.

MyDek’s drainage channel fits seamlessly between balcony decking boards to direct water away from balconies below and close off sight lines between balcony decking boards, maximising privacy for residents. In addition, we offer a furniture anchor which fits between the balcony decking boards to ensure that any furniture is kept safe in high winds.
