Find the Metal Roof Solar Mounting System that Best Suits Your Application.

There are many options when mounting solar on a metal roof, the details of which can impact installation costs and lifetime performance. Metal rooftop mounting consists of two basic parts: the roof mounting hardware and the actual solar panel attachment interface. Choosing to go with a rail-based or rail-less installation method depends on a variety of factors.

Your chosen mounting method can have a profound effect on the cost of materials, total installation time and labor, material handling, logistics, freight expense and much more.
