Basic STANDING SEAM Metal Roof | How To install.

In this video we’re doing a basic standing seam metal roof, I hope y’all can learn something, and just be aware this might not be the exact type of trim and panels that you have access to in your area, but some of the basic principals could still apply. Also normally you would probably have an “A” Frame roof your working on, not a Lean-to like this one, in that case line up your Rake, (Gable, or Corner) trims up at the peak, and make all the points meet. On another note, Some metal roofing shops can make custom trim so take advantage of that,

Thanks guys, It's nice to find DIY videos made as well as yours. I can't think of anything that would make it better. Thanks again.

very professional. Nice work.

good work

[@johnbruzzi4381]

Nice work guys, can you make a door to close the end on the overlapping panel at the drip edge

[@plankroofing]

We always bend a piece around to close the end of the rib.
whether it’s a factory pre-cut that you just bend around,
Or using a tin snips to make a “door”
To cover the end of the rib.

@@plankroofing I didn't see it in this video

[@plankroofing]

@@johnbruzzi4381 it’s at the 6:00 minute mark. Between 6 and 6:10
All he did was bend the tab around to close the end of the rib. Because it came pre notched from the manufacturer. If it’s not already notched you have to cut out a tab with your Tin snips to make a “door”
I wish I had a video demonstrating this but I don’t.

Hey quick question what’s the rake trim name

[@plankroofing]

@@samvarios610 we just called it standing seam rake. This is about the only company I know of that makes them this way. Royal oak metal sales in Michigan.
But there are some metal suppliers who will make something like this custom.

where do i buy the bending machine

[@plankroofing]

Which one? Are you taking about the edge roller for bending up the finisher piece? Or the 18” break for hemming the bottoms? I put links to both of them in the description.
I believe we got the edge roller off of Amazon.
