Accessories for roof panels – what should I pay attention to?

Roof panels are only a portion of all the purchases we need to make when we want to build a roof on a house or other property. It is also worth looking at accessories which, apart from being aesthetically pleasing, are of considerable importance for the functioning of our roof and its safety. What is worth remembering?

What accessories are available for roof panels?

The accessories to think about are first and foremost:

• The roof parapet
• The roof ridge
• The eaves
• The barge flashing

The roof parapet for good roof protection

The roof parapet may be bring to mind an association with  historical buildings because they were used in buildings as early as the Middle Ages. It is an element of the façade of a building whose function, apart from making the building look nicer, is to protect the building against the spread of fire. In our store you will find several variants of roof parapets: a roof parapet in a ridge, a gable roof parapet, single roof parapet in the eaves, a double roof parapet in the eaves, a roof parapet in the eaves with gutter. You will find all accessories for roof panels related to roof parapets and their installation in our store.

A roof ridge – an accessory for gable end roof panels

The roof ridge forms the gable line of the roof. It is a good idea to secure the intersection of roof slopes so that the roof is stable and does not leak. As far back as in the Middle Ages, straw was dipped in mixed clay and laid on the back of the roof to make it more impermeable. This was the first roof ridge. You will also find accessories for ridge mounting on roofs made of composite panels in our store.

The eaves – the protective layer for the roof

Thanks to the eaves, we can walk under the roof more safely. It’s especially worth thinking about when you know it’s going to snow a lot in winter, as the eaves serve as the perfect snow barrier. Not only does it help to prevent snow from sliding down the roof, it also protects the roof from damage. Eaves are also needed to drain water from the roof. Such roofing board accessories are essential for proper roof protection and should be planned for as early as the stage of purchasing the roofing boards themselves.

A barge flashing that protects against wind

The barge flashing, as the name suggests, is designed to protect our roof from the wind. This is very important, as strong winds can tear off unprotected panels. Properly installed roof panels and the right accessories will allow you to enjoy using your roof for many years. There are also accessories that are not essential but may be useful in a particular building. Such as roof dead lights, which ensure that daylight passes through the roof in industrial buildings.
