Standing seam metal roofing is defined as a concealed fastener metal panel system that features vertical legs and a broad flat area between the two legs. Flat seam roofing is constructed of 18 by 24 20 oz. Typically standing seam panels are completely flat or striated with the ridges or bumps being at the seams or vertical legs. They are also used on curved surfaces such as domes and barrel vaults.

In this application galvanized steel and copper are the most widely used metals with stainless steel and zinc rarely installed. The panels are made from 18 x 24 sheets with all four sides folded over two sides one way and the other two opposite. Each section is custom manufactured on site for a perfect fit keeping out rain snow and wind. Certain types of metal roofs do not lend themselves well to flatter or completely flat pitches.

And its heavy gauge hot dipped g 90 galvanized steel provides optimum resistance to hail corrosion mold and mildew. It s also described as having raised seams or vertical legs that rise above the level of the panel s flat area. Snap lock panel metal roofs are not advisable for roofs with a pitch of 2 12 or less 2 feet of vertical rise for every 12 feet of horizontal rise. Our seamless metal roofing looks like shingles but provides a sleek streamlined look to any roofline.

Standing seam metal roofing systems use hidden fasteners meaning the hardware used to secure the panels to the substrate are hidden beneath the panels instead of exposed on top of them. Two adjacent sides of the sheets are folded over and two are folded under to form 3 4 locks. Flat seamed roofs are used on very low pitched roofs and have soldered seams.
