Thanks for the valley metal installation process
Thanks for watching!
I have learned a lot from your videos. You have a great product. Thank you guys!
Thanks for watching!
pro trick : watch movies on flixzone. I've been using them for watching lots of of movies recently.
@Albert Jesiah Yup, have been using Flixzone} for since december myself :D
@Albert Jesiah Yup, have been using flixzone} for years myself :D
@Albert Jesiah yea, I have been watching on Flixzone} for months myself =)
very clear instruction. great job! tx
U no how I seal around chimney and skylights I use ice and water and make a counter flashing a l bracket outta it I found it works very well for it I really hate metal
Who is your sales rep in the Hudson Valley?
This is considered a continuous cleat system? No roofers seem to be familiar with this technique, rather hem over dripedge. Is this a rare install?
thank you for sharing :)
My opinion, there should always be overhang. Watch the cleat bend in the rain. Water does run back. I know you have the tape but that does eventually break down. And the cleat sits.on the roof but the cleat still is higher for the bend. So how are suppose to walk up the valleys without damaging it? On steep roofs you have to walk up the valley. I have been doing these installations for nearly 20 years and I would not recommend cleats. And would urge hangover.
This called continuous cleat system? Supposed to me numerous advantages?
In Australia, the flat tray of these sheets would not be bent back under the sheets as they would not be seen because of the gutter saving time which saves money and from the ground would look as good as these sheets.
Nobody cares how you do it in Australia.
It's called a wind lock
Both ways are correct?
good .video
Maybe a silly question...how loud is the rain on those panels?
ps3shakes123 as long as you use 4x8 plywood it's no louder than a shingle roof, if you're wanting the old tin roof sound when it rains use skip sheeting. Use 1x6 for your roof deck and you only need to run a 1x6 where you need to install the clips that hold the roof panels. So, you put a 1x6 all the way across the bottom, leave a 3 or 4 inch gap, then run another 1x6. I enjoy the sound of the rain hitting the metal roof so I use the skip sheeting method myself.
I would have liked to see how you bend to make the hem. Do you use a brake for that or use the hand tool?
Hi Donald! Thanks for your comment. There are details on how to notch and hem the panels in our SL-16 Installation Manual, which can be founf here: www.abcmetalroofing.com/Documents/Installation-Manuals/SL-16--Manual/
Details on the tools and sealants we use start on page 11 of the manual.

Thanks for watching!
Thanks
I can't see the logic of sealing the bottom cleat in the valley. Why would I want to seal the bottom so as to prevent any potential blow-by from gathering against the upside of the seal? After all, the mere fact that the valley tray extends beyond the valley cleats is an indication that blow-by must still be a consideration. That said, it seems to me it would be better to install the bottom offset cleat in the valley WITHOUT sealing tape so any blow-by could escape under it. And in case water might find its way over the cleat (especially if it's sealed), I could even see notching slits into the underside of the hem to let it weep out.
johnstreak if water is getting to that tape, you've already got a leak. If installed properly, that will never be a problem
Does 17" on the square works on all different slopes of roof? Thks
Hi Jean Luc! The 17" mark on the square will work for all roof slopes. This only changes when the panel profile changes as it is based on the width of the panel that's used. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Thanks for watching!
On which width 17 is our angle
If sheet width is 42 inch... High rib sheet
Plzzz reply
There's a nail in your shoe!
Is this true about continuous cleat system? ### Advantages of Continuous Cleat System and Its Superiority
**1. Accommodates Thermal Expansion and Contraction:**
- **Uniform Movement:** Allows metal panels to expand and contract uniformly with temperature changes, reducing stress on the panels and preventing issues like warping or buckling.
- **Prevents Damage:** Minimizes the risk of damage to the roofing system caused by thermal movement, enhancing durability and longevity.
**2. Reduces Oil Canning:**
- **Stress Distribution:** Provides a consistent attachment point, distributing stress evenly across the panels and reducing the likelihood of visible waviness or distortion (oil canning).
- **Aesthetic Quality:** Maintains a flatter, more visually appealing roof surface.
**3. Enhances Wind Resistance:**
- **Secure Attachment:** Offers a more secure and continuous attachment along the eave, improving the roof’s ability to withstand strong winds by distributing wind forces more evenly.
- **Prevents Uplift:** Reduces the risk of panel uplift or detachment during high winds.
**4. Manages Snow Loads Better:**
- **Even Support:** Provides even support across the panels, helping to manage the weight of accumulated snow and reducing the likelihood of panel deformation or failure.
- **Increases Safety:** Enhances the roof’s structural integrity, making it safer in regions with heavy snowfall.
**5. Prevents Leaks:**
- **Consistent Sealing:** Ensures a more consistent and reliable sealing of the roof, reducing the chances of leaks that can occur with panel deformation or fastener failure.
- **Long-Term Performance:** Improves long-term weather resistance, maintaining the integrity of the roof over time.
**6. Aesthetic and Structural Benefits:**
- **Clean Lines:** Provides a cleaner, more streamlined aesthetic by eliminating visible attachment points and maintaining the integrity of the roof’s design.
- **Structural Integrity:** Enhances the overall structural integrity of the roof by providing continuous support and reducing localized stress points.
**7. Superior to Fold-Over Systems:**
- **Flexibility:** Unlike fold-over systems that create rigid attachment points, the continuous cleat system offers flexibility, allowing the roof to move naturally with thermal changes.
- **Durability:** The continuous cleat system’s ability to accommodate movement without compromising the integrity of the panels makes it more durable and resilient.
**8. Long-Term Cost Efficiency:**
- **Reduced Maintenance:** By preventing common issues like oil canning, panel warping, and leaks, the continuous cleat system can reduce the need for maintenance and repairs over the roof’s lifespan.
- **Increased Lifespan:** Enhances the overall lifespan of the roofing system, providing better value for investment despite the higher initial cost.
### Conclusion
The continuous cleat system is superior due to its ability to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction, reduce oil canning, enhance wind resistance, manage snow loads, prevent leaks, and improve both aesthetic and structural integrity. While it may be more complex and costly to install, its long-term benefits and superior performance make it a worthwhile investment for durable and reliable metal roofing.
Hidden fastener-pro install. Exposed fastener-DIY. Exposed=cost savings.
Hidden=nobody even noticed and cost more.
Your ruler is not 1- inch thick it is 1-inch wide Dah!!
