Fitting the Gable End Ridge Kit
Fitting the Gable End Ridge Kit is fairly straight forward and requires just a small selection of basic tools. However, as with any work carried out at a height, great care should be taken.
The roof should be prepared first with flashing applied, if required. The ridge is then prepared, which includes cutting the Ridge Top Capping to length and fixing to the Gable End Capping and Ridge Flashing Trim. The complete assembly is then offered up to the roof and secured with either the supplied Ridge T Bolts or screws.
The Gable End Ridge Kit includes a Fitting Guide that provides some helpful pointers to help you assemble and fit the ridge.
