FAQs about gravel stops
Here are the most frequently asked questions about aluminium gravel stop.
Gravel stops are specially designed profiles for terraces, balconies or flat roofs. They prevent uncontrolled water runoff and ensure that gravel or other surface coverings remain securely in place. Flat roof gravel stops feature prefabricated water drainage slots that ensure controlled water runoff while retaining larger materials like gravel. This not only keeps gravel out of drainage areas but also contributes to a more durable and low-maintenance surface. Additionally, flat roof gravel stops can be visually tailored to complement green roofs and the building’s architecture, providing both a functional and aesthetically pleasing solution.
Aluminium is a preferred material for gravel stop profiles because it combines
- shape stability,
- durability,
- resistance to corrosion,
- light weight, and
- flexibility
in one. Aluminium gravel stops are easy to transport and install due to their lightweight design. You can also select any colour from the RAL colour chart to customise their appearance.
Gravel stops are primarily used along balcony and terrace edges, where they prevent the unwanted runoff of gravel and other materials. They are essential for creating a clean separation between paved and unpaved areas while regulating water drainage. Gravel stops are also a key component on green roofs, where they prevent substrates or gravel from entering the roof drainage systems. Besides their functional role, flat roof gravel stops also offer aesthetic benefits by creating a clean and orderly transition between different surfaces.
