Clip the first verge unit over the eaves closure unit, and slide it along until it lines up with the edge of the roof tile. Then, nail the top of the unit onto the batten end clip. The first method can be done with a sharp knife tool, cutting in the same direction the grooves go rather than across.

Note : If silicone or adhesive has been used to secure the panels in place, you will need to be more careful with the removal.This step is usually the most difficult – forcing up the glazing bar cap. You will have to be very careful during this stage. With your screwdriver or special glazing bar cap removal tool, cautiously remove the plastic cap apart from where it is joined to the toothed aluminium glazing bar; making sure you hold the polycarbonate panels in place. Step four: Install the underlay if required, and ensure all battens extend beyond the gable wall or bargeboard by 20-40mm – they must extend by the same distance to create a straight and even line. If the tiling battens are rotting or showing signs of wear and tear, the alternative is to fix a batten strip along the verge instead. Step 2: When fitting a polycarbonate roof , you need to know the why, what and how-to for a successful result. We’ve dedicated this guide to help you learn how to fit polycarbonate roofing to ensure you have the knowledge and tools you need for this project.

Just how simple they are for anyone to install, whether they’re a professional or a handy homeowner is one of the many benefits of dry verge systems. Of course, each system will be slightly different so you should always follow instructions from the manufacturer, but below you’ll find a handy guide outlining the main steps. Position the second verge unit in the slots of the first one (if the product features slots). If working on a “flex” dry verge system, ply the verge unit open and push it onto the tail of the first verge unit, ensuring the end of the verge lines up with the end of the tail, and nail the top into the batten end clip. Step 7: Once the cutting is complete, remove the dust from the sheets (this can be done using a vacuum) to ensure they are clean and clear of debris before installation. Note: As you drill the sheet, make sure it’s supported securely underneath via the H profile and don’t drill within 4mm of the edge of the sheet.
