Step by step process of installing rake flashing on a double lock standing seam roof (with a double locked ridge). This process uses a custom rake cleat and rake flashing for a clean finished look. The material used was 26ga galvalume.
I learned to do standing seam roofing with follansbee terne in the 1980s. I did alot of it till the mid 1990s When formed pans and rollformers on trailers became the norm Was a lot of fun and work
Awesome work, thanks for sharing this! When is this rake edge detail preferable to a drip edge style cleat with the end pan folded over it along its length? Is it just an aesthetic preference?
It’s probably more of aesthetic preference however the standing seam will certainly prevent the rain water from rolling off the gable end unlike the drip edge hemmed style.
