  1. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR GERARD METAL SHINGLES

  2. CUT 2 INCHES OFF EAVE STARTER NOSE AND SLIDE OVER PREVIOUS STARTER. ALWAYS LAP ICE AND WATER SHIELD OVER EAVE STARTER.

  3. SLIDE NEW EAVE STARTER OVER PREVIOUS STARTER AND NAIL EVERY FOOT ON GALVALUME SURFACE. CONTINUE TO ROLL ICE SHIELD.

  4. COVER ALL EAVE STARTER (EXCEPT NOSE) WITH ICE SHIELD.

  5. INSTALL RAKE (GABLE) "J" OVER EAVE STARTER WITH RAKE COVER SLID ON "J." KEEP RAKE COVER FLUSH WITH RAKE GABLE FACSIA.

  6. SLIDE RAKE COVER TWO INCHES PAST EAVE STARTER, TRIM, AND ATTACH WITH STITCH SCREW TO EAVE STARTER.

  7. CUT 4 INCHES OF J EDGE, CAULK, AND SLIDE NEW J RAKE OVER PREVIOUS J RAKE.

  8. ALWAYS LAP ALL MATERIAL JOINTS TO KEEP HORIZONTAL RAIN FROM GETTING BEHIND METAL. THIS ALSO HELPS MAKE A GOOD APPEARANCE.

  9. START INSTALLING ROWS OF SHINGLES FROM THE LEFT TO RIGHT. VERTICAL LAP SHOULD BE NO CLOSER THAN 6 INCHES FROM OTHER SURROUNDING ROWS. ALWAYS SPACE VERTICAL LAP BY A MIN. 6 INCHES.

  10. YOU CAN WALK ON SHINGLES WITH SOFT SOLE SHOES. FASTENERS FOR EACH SHINGLE SHOULD TOTAL 7. ATTACH LEFT EDGE FIRST AND THEN RIGHT EDGE. THEN FILL THE BETWEEN FASTENERS.

  11. REVERSE BEND THE LEFT SIDE OF EACH PANEL TO MAKE THE VERTICAL LAP FIT TIGHT. BEND LEFT SIDE ABOUT 45° ANGLE.

  12. ANOTHER VIEW OF REVERSE BENDING PANEL TO 45° ANGLE

  13. EXTEND RAKE (GABLE) J UP AND OVER RIDGE. CUT THE J EDGE AND BEND DOWN THE BACK SIDE.

  14. MITER RAKE COVER AT RIDGE AND CONTINUE BACK DOWN ROOF RAKE.

  15. THIS SHOWS HOW YOU LAP THE RAKE (GABLE) J WITH THE CAULK BETWEEN THE TWO PIECES.

  16. INSTALLATION WORKS BEST WITH 2 PEOPLE. ONE ALIGNS THE PANEL, THE OTHER NAILS EACH END 2 INCHES IN AND 4 INCHES BETWEEN.

  17. MARKING YOUR CUT CAN BE DONE WITH A SCRATCH AWL OR ANY SHARP OBJECT. USE A STRAIGHT EDGE TO GUIDE YOUR LINE.

  18. INSTALL PANELS LEFT TO RIGHT TO RIDGE VENT OPENING. ALWAYS WEAR SOFT SOLE SHOES OR TENNIS SHOES TO WORK ON PANELS.

  19. SHINGLE ROWS SHOULD BE CUT TO EDGE OF RIDGE VENT OPENING.

  20. INSTALL KBS FOLD-A-VENT OVER VENT OPENING AND LAP ON SHINGLES. VENT CAN BE AIR NAILED OR SCREWED TO THE ROOF.

  21. AT EACH END OF VENT REMOVE 2 INCHES OF VENT TUBE AND ATTACH OUTER VENT SKIN TO ROOF AND SEAL END UNDER RAKE J.

  22. INSTALL RIDGE CAP STRAIGHT FROM RAKE END TO RAKE END. EACH RIDGE CAP IS FORMED TO THE PITCH OF THE ROOF.

  23. RAKE END RIDGE CAPS ARE FITTED UNDER RAKE J TO PROTECT END OF CAP.

  24. VALLEY METAL IS 18 INCHES WIDE. CENTER “V” CHANNEL IS THE TRIM POINT FOR EACH ROW OF SHINGLES. WRAP METAL OVER TOP.

  25. VALLEY METAL IS 18 INCHES WIDE. IT HAS 5 WATER CHANNELS. THE CENTER CHANNEL IS SHINGLE MITER POINT. DO NOT USE NAILS.

  26. EACH ROW OF SHINGLES MITERS TO CENTER “V” CHANNEL. NEVER DRIVE NAILS THROUGH VALLEY METAL!

  27. FOR EXISTING ROOFS YOU CAN INSTALL ICE SHIELD ON OLD ROOF AND NAIL OUR STEEL SHINGLE AS NORMAL. ALWAYS USE RING SHANK NAILS.

  28. WE RECOMMEND INSTALLING OUR STEEL SHINGLE OVER YOUR EXISTING ROOF. THIS SAVES MONEY AND OUR ENVIRONMENT.

  29. CUT OLD SHINGLES AND DRIP EDGE 4 INCHES TO ACCOMMODATE RAKE “J.” THIS GIVES A MORE LEVEL ROOF EDGE.

  30. ALWAYS INSTALL RAKE “J” TO BOTTOM OF ROOF OR TO DRAIN ON ROOF AT STOPPING POINT OF “J.”

  31. HERE THE RAKE “J” EXTENDS ON TO SHINGLE TO DRAIN WATER. THE END CAN BE STONE COATED WITH OUR TOUCH-UP KIT.

  32. ALWAYS REMOVE OLD CAULK AND ALL FLASHINGS BEFORE INSTALLING OUR “J” AND Z-BAR COUNTER FLASHING.

  33. CUT PIPE JACK TRAY TO SIZE OF PIPE AND SLIDE OVER AND HOOK BOTTOM TO LOWER SHINGLE.

  34. INSTALL SEALANT BETWEEN JACK TRAY AND PIPE.

  35. TRIM PIPE FLASHING TO FIT TRAY AND INSTALL OVER PIPE.

  36. BEFORE INSTALLING STEEL SHINGLE, CUT SMALL WATER WEEPS NEAR EDGE OF PIPE FLASHING IN LINE ON THE NEW SHINGLE FOR DRAINAGE.

  37. CUT SHINGLE HOLE TO FIT OVER PIPE.

  38. LOCK SHINGLE TIGHT TO SHINGLE BELOW. APPLY SEALANT BETWEEN SHINGLE AND PIPE.

  39. CONTINUE ROW OF SHINGLES.

  40. AFTER GIVING SEALANT 24 HOURS TO DRY, APPLY BASE COAT AND TOUCH UP STONE TO SEALANT AND BLEND TO SHINGLE.

  41. Flashing Detail

  42. Valley & Valley Cap Detail

  43. APPLY ICE & WATER SHIELD. INSTALL VALLEY. NAIL ON THE SIDES AND BEND OVER.

  44. VALLEY CAP IS INSTALLED LAST. SCREW ONLY TO THE SHINGLES, NOT THE VALLEY.

  45. WHEN BOTH VALLEYS MEET AT RIDGE, OVERLAP VALLEY PIECES AND BEND TO WRAP OVER RIDGE.

  46. Hip & RidgeDetail

  47. INSTALLING A HIP CAP.
