Hi, I'm Tom Shean and today on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to show you how to install
a metal roof. Place the two pieces of vented top row so the base measurement is approximately
4 1/2 inches in chalk line for position. Stitch screw the two pieces of vented top row together
with one screw per link per side. Secure the vented top row to the panel with screws at
the high portions of the tile. A beat of cocking should be used to bed the joints. The barrel
cap trims can now be fastened to the vented top roll in the normal fashion. Please ensure
that ample clearance is available under the caps for ventilation. Additionally in high
wind areas ridge form closures should be installed under the vented top row. Bend and cut the
last course of tile to leave a minimum 1 inch gap and 1/2 inch up stand centered on the
ridge. Place the VersaVent down each side of the ridge over the tile with the shake
cap or crown cap placed over. Fasten the cap on each side down into the tiles in 1 inch
strapping, do not over tighten.
