The Highest Line on the Roof Still Needs Protection

Two roof slopes meet at the ridge.

On a metal roof, that joint needs a compatible finished detail.

That is the:

Ridge cap.

What Does It Do?

The ridge assembly helps:

• Cover panel ends
• Manage wind-driven precipitation
• Finish the roofline

What About Ventilation?

Some metal-roof ridge systems incorporate ventilation.

Others do not.

The detail needs to match the attic-ventilation design.

Why Are Closure Materials Important?

Profiled metal can leave shaped gaps beneath ridge trim.

Appropriate closure or vent components help complete the detail without randomly blocking required airflow.

Why Is Fastening Important?

The ridge is highly exposed to wind.

Its fastening should follow the roofing-system requirements.

The Ridge Cap Finishes One of the Most Exposed Joints on the Roof.

Envirotech Exteriors installs metal-roof ridge details as part of the complete roofing system rather than treating the cap as decorative trim alone.
