Snow guards on a corrugated metal roof? - 07/27/13
Anyone ever put snow guards on a corrugated metal roof? I have a 12' wide covered deck that encircles my place. The roof surface is 20g corrugated galvanized metal roofing sheets. When I put it up, I did not consider the fact that snow would slide off of it en masse.
I have to put something on to stop the sliding before I do any kind of gutters, etc or they will get ripped to shreds the first time there is an avalanche of snow.
The problem? Snow guards abound for standing seam roofing in a bunch of price ranges, but not so much for corrugated roofing.
Looking for something that is mechanically fastened and metal. I have found one product that is a cast snow guard, but they go for about $7 a piece. Not too bad, but I am going to need about 400 of them! Was looking for something a little more economical. Anyone out there ever use anything like what I am looking for?
