STANDARD RIDGE ROLL and HIP INSTALLATION

Details are subject to change without prior notice.

1. Lay a piece of the #0221 ridge roll or hip in position, making sure it is centered and in the correct position.

(Refer to step #8 for end capping instructions)

2. Temporarily fasten the ridge roll in place at one end with a woodgrip screw, positioning the screw through the hem

of the ridge roll, centered between the ribs.

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

4. Starting at the opposite end, slide the 5/8” lip of the (field cut) #0322 metal closure into both sides of the ridge

roll and position the metal closure on the sheet.

5. Attach with (1) woodgrip screw, centered between each rib, through the hem of the ridge roll and through the 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. Continue installing the closures the entire length of the ridge or hip. Remove the temporary fastener, insert the closure,

and fasten through the existing hole as in step 4.

7. All end laps should be at least 4”. Remove 4” of the hem on each side of the overlapping piece and secure to the

overlapped piece with caulk and stitch screws.

8. Cap the end of all ridge rolls and hips by cutting and folding ends. The hem must be removed before the folds are made.

Capping is usually easier to do before the piece is installed. If done after installation, be sure and leave 6” of the ridge
roll or hip overhanging the peak or corner to allow enough material for cuts and folds.

9. Before the ridge trim is installed, if the pitch of the roof is 4:12 or less, the end of the panel that is under the

ridge or hip trim should be bent up between the high ribs to prevent moisture blow back.

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