WESTERN LOCK® STANDING SEAM METAL ROOFING

Floating Unvented Ridge Cap - Part #WS-456

Floating ridge cap means that the standing seam panels aren't pinned in place at the ridge. This allows for expansion and contraction. If you have a floating ridge, you will need a fixed connection at the other end of the standing seam panel. 

Most of the jobs that we supply have a fixed ridge and a floating eave. This detail is not used that often.

Snow Retention Systems

When snow accumulations begin to melt, the result can be catastrophic as the blanket of snow avalanches off the roof dumping tons of snow onto anything in its path.

It can damage landscape, gutters, adjacent roofs, vehicles and cause injury or death to passers-by. All of S-5!’s snow retention systems dramatically reduce these risks associated with rooftop avalanches while maintaining the clean lines of the roof.
