Why metal
- Snow slides off
- Strong wind resistance when fastened right
- Noncombustible — important near the forest
- Long life with little upkeep
Panel types

Hidden fasteners, fewer leak points.

Snow guards
Snow sliding off can hit decks, walkways and vehicles. Snow guards hold it in place to melt. We'll suggest where they make sense.
Materials
We source panels and trim from New Mexico suppliers including Metal Center.
