• What is a tile leveling system?

  Any unevenness on the floor can result in tiles not being level. They can shift out of place or even collapse, which can be dangerous. You could easily trip. And that’s exactly why you should use a tile leveling system.

  It’s the ideal solution for working with larger tiles, and for laying ceramic parquet tiles that are naturally slightly curved. You can always count on an perfectly laid, level floor. But the leveling system is also a great choice for smaller tiles, and for indoor and outdoor tiles alike.

  Our systems includes all the components you need, such as push pliers, wedges, and clips – with the added bonus that you can lay tiles quickly.

• How does a tile leveling system work?

  When using a tile leveling system, you start by applying the tile adhesive. Then you slide the clips under the tile. You can use one or more clips on each side.

  When the spacer is firmly in place, you’re ready for the next tile. Are all the tiles completely level? Then insert the wedge into the clip opening. The push pliers are useful for this. Now it’s just a matter of waiting. The adhesive needs time to fully dry.

  Once the adhesive is completely hard, remove the visible part of the clip. Anyone can use this system to lay tiles evenly, always the right distance apart. We often see professional tilers benefiting from it in practice.

• Benefits of a tile leveling system

  Tile leveling systems offer a number of benefits. You can lay all your tiles in one go, for example, and start walking on your new floor sooner. The clips and wedges also hold the tiles together properly while laying them, and automatically ensure you always have the same joint width.

  Are your tiles thinner than 6 mm? No problem if you’re using a leveling system. You’re sure to end up with a perfectly laid floor which you can enjoy for many years. When considering your options, you’ll discover a tile leveling system with standard clips and wedges or splints, among others. You can use this system to lay tiles evenly, with the clips and wedges doing all the work for you.
  The clips are available in various thicknesses, such as 1, 2, and 3 mm, and the placement pliers are made from plastic so they’re easy to handle when inserting the wedges firmly in the clips. You can of course also opt for metal pliers.

  There’s also a tile leveling system with cross-shaped clips and tile caps. The advantage of this principle is that you lay part of your floor quickly, and remove it just as easily. The joint crosses ensure that you always have the same joint width between the edges and tiles.

• How do you choose a tile leveling system?

  When determining which tile leveling system is best for you, it’s important to consider what tiles you’ll be working with.

  Most systems are suitable for tiles that are 3-13 mm thick. If you’re choosing a thicker tile up to 20 mm, then it’s best to opt for a large leveling system.

  The joint width is also a factor in choosing the right tile leveling system. This depends on your personal preference to some degree.

  There are various systems available, e.g. for joints widths of 1, 2, or 3 mm. It is often recommended to always have a minimum 2 mm joint width.
