Add extra personality and style to any outdoor space with uniquely shaped hexagonal porcelain pavers.
Archatrak hexagonal porcelain pavers feature the classic hexagon shape typified by beehive honeycomb – an equilateral hexagon with all six sides the same length, and all angles at 120°.
Despite the hexagon shape, they are exceptionally easy to install because of their uniform angles and dimensions. Their unique pattern is much more intriguing than the 90° angles of rectangular or square pavers which brings visual interest to broad public plazas and residential landscaping.
Hexagon shaped porcelain pavers can be very effectively used in landscaped areas with pebbles or crushed rock around the perimeter. The pavers are not cut, but are allowed to drift into the pebbled area. Very stylish patio designs can be achieved using a combination of darker and lighter hexagonal pavers.

Roof Deck Installation of Hexagonal Porcelain Pavers
It is not normally practical or cost effective to build rooftop decks using hexagonal pavers directly supported by adjustable height pedestals because pedestals would have to be positioned at all six corners.
However, hexagonal porcelain pavers can be laid successfully on rooftops using Archatrak SpanTrak fiberglass grating panels supported with pedestals. The hexagonal pavers are placed over the panels, separated by a 1/8″ thick mat of recycled rubber for noise suppression. ‘Y’ shaped spacers (available from several online suppliers)are used to correctly space the pavers.

Installation Options
For most applications, Archatrak hexagonal porcelain pavers can be laid dry by simply placing them in the desired position over a well compacted sand/gravel bed, without the need for any mortar, adhesives or concrete base.
The general installation method is similar to the 2cm porcelain paver installation method as described in our notes for installation over sand or gravel beds, except that ‘Y’ shaped spacers are required when laying rather than cross shaped spacers.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Archatrak Hexagonal Porcelain Pavers
Hexagonal porcelain pavers offer a unique geometric aesthetic that enhances the visual appeal of outdoor areas. They are highly durable, weather-resistant, and provide a non-slip surface, making them ideal for patios, walkways, and pool surrounds. Additionally, their precise dimensions allow for seamless installation and creative design patterns.
The primary consideration to note is that hexagon outdoor pavers need to be cut on one side if they are being laid up against a wall or restraining barrier. This also requires a bit of planning if there is a wall on the opposite side as you want to avoid being left with small triangular gaps that need to be infilled with cut pavers.
Hexagonal pavers provide a distinctive, modern look that sets them apart from traditional shapes. Their six-sided design allows for more intricate and visually interesting layouts. Functionally, they offer the same durability and low maintenance as other porcelain pavers but with added design versatility.
