Sky Products provides standard or customized solutions to attach solar panels, rooftop lighting, signs, HVAC units, walkways, or snow retention to standing seam roofs without penetrating the panels. Based on our many years of experience and expertise, we help our customers with standard or customized solutions.
A snow guard system mitigates the risk of sudden and unexpected release of snow from the roof, which can lead to damaged roof panels, gutters, light fixtures, walls and foundations, protection of lower roofs or worse, severe injury to people. The idea is to evacuate the snow in a predictable and controlled fashion, as opposed to a sudden release. It may be hard to imagine that an accumulation of those pretty little snowflakes can have enough force to do serious damage to property and person, but that is the reality.
OUR SNOW RETENTION PRODUCTS
Used on over 1.6 million roofs worldwide, Sky Products uses S-5!® clamps to attach snow retention and solar systems to the panel seam. The clamps attach to the seam by the tightening of two “bullet –nosed” stainless steel setscrews against the seam material. The round point setscrews compress the seam material against the opposite wall of the clamp. They will “dimple” the seam material, but will not penetrate it.
S-5!® clamps are made from 6061-T6 aluminum extrusions conforming to ASTM B221 or aluminum castings conforming to ASTM B85 and to AA Aluminum Standards.
The setscrews are made from 300 series stainless steel, 18-8 alloy.
Why Sky Products chose S-5! ® products
Are they strong enough?
In order to promote the best non penetrating clamping system S-5! ® has performed hundreds of tensile-load tests to prove the holding strength of the clamps. All tests were performed by a third party A2LA accredited laboratory, all results are available online.
The concept of combining photovoltaic arrays with standing seam metal roofing is growing—and for good reasons. A standing seam metal roof has a life expectancy consistent with that of framed PV modules.
A 30-year power source on a 40-year roof, along with zero-penetration technology, creates the most sustainable roof system available with alternative power generation, all without compromising the roof manufacturer’s warranty!
The world’s best standing seam metal roofing brackets—The Ultimate Bracket, The Big Boy’s, and The Roofer’s Helper—began with a metal roofing contractor who realized that his work time was inefficient.
Upon searching the web and metal roofing magazines, he soon discovered there was no bracket designed strictly for standing seam metal roofing that would enable the contractor to install metal roofing in a comfortable, efficient, and safe manner. This is how the idea was born to invent and develop his own. The process took several years to invent, patent, develop, and manufacture. The outcome has been well worth the wait. We are now able to offer you these three brackets: The Ultimate Bracket, The Big Boy’s, and The Roofer’s Helper. We have no doubt that once your company uses these brackets, you will find that the installation of standing seam metal roofing has never been so fast, efficient, and comfortable.
