HIGH SIDE RESIDENTIAL EAVE TRIM INSTALLATION

Details are subject to change without prior notice.

1. Attach the high side trim (#0803) to the fascia with woodgrip screws on 5’ centers. Make sure the 6” side of the

trim is on the rooftop with the receiver hem resting on the highs.

2. Cap the ends of the trim by cutting and folding a tab that attaches to the gable trim. The hem must be removed

before a fold is made. Capping is usually easier to do before the trim is installed. If done after the trim is installed,
be sure and leave 6” of the trim overhanging to allow enough material for cut and folds.

3. Field cut enough metal closures (#0322) to complete the job.

4. Slide the 5/8” lip of the field cut metal closure into the receiver hem of the eave trim and position the closure on

the sheet.

5. Attach with one woodgrip screw, centered between each rib, through the hem of the ridge roll and metal closure,

into the decking. Care must be taken not to over-tighten the screws, as this will distort the trim and closures.
The screw hole can be pre-drilled, if desired.

6. All end laps should be at least 4”. Remove 4” of the hem on the overlapping piece and secure it to the overlapped

piece with caulk and stitch screws.

NOTE: Alternate trim profiles are acceptable using the screw pattern shown.

NOTE: To comply with Texas

Windstorm Certification Testing,

#12x11 SDT Type A screws must

be used in place of the #9

Woodgrip screws.
