Raised deck with L shape at Beckenham

Project - provide access deck for handicapped child with no obstructions. The raised decking patio was decided upon, with an 'L' shaped aspect for maximum space.

Ease of access to the deck was high priority as was safety aspect of access to garden - secured by matching gate. This type of deck adds so much more room to the living area of a house. An outside room no less!

Before we started >>>>>

Prior to start, the access to the garden area was totally unsafe, and unsuitable

After we had finished >>>>

Finished deck allowed full access to large area of decking with security provided by matching gate
