Patio kit FAQs
Who makes NQ Patios kits?
Norfoam, at its factory in Bohle, Townsville. Norfoam has been making insulated panels and EPS in North Queensland for close to 40 years, and makes the Nordeck® insulated roof panel used in every NQ Patios kit.
Why does a kit cost more here than one from down south?
Because it has to stand up to North Queensland wind. In Norfoam’s span table the same 75 mm Nordeck® panel reaches 7.1 m on a non-cyclonic N1 site, typical of a southern suburb, but only 5.9 m on a sheltered Townsville street and 4.8 m on an open block. So the same patio here needs a thicker panel or another beam, and a kit sized for a southern site can come up too thin for here. NQ Patios kits are made at Bohle, sized to your wind class and checked against your site before they’re made.
What is a Nordeck® panel?
A roof, insulation and ceiling in one panel: a 0.42 mm COLORBOND® steel top skin, an EPS-FR fire-retardant foam core, and a 0.6 mm steel ceiling in plain or VJ. Panels are 1000 mm wide, 50 to 200 mm thick and up to 24 m long.
Are Nordeck® kits suitable for cyclonic areas?
Nordeck® is tested for use in cyclonic regions, and Norfoam’s span table covers the cyclonic wind classes C1 to C3 as well as N1 to N4. The calculator uses that table, and Norfoam checks your site’s wind class before the kit is made.
How thick does my patio roof need to be?
It depends on how far the panels span, your wind class and how many sides are open. On a sheltered Townsville street with three open sides, 50 mm spans up to 4.9 m and 100 mm up to 6.9 m. The calculator works it out for your size.
Do you deliver outside Townsville?
Kits go out from Bohle by crane truck, or you can collect from the factory. Norfoam quotes the delivery for your suburb with the kit.
