Clear Wide Snow Guards
A high-quality clear polycarbonate snow guard with a wider surface area designed to help retain and manage snow on metal roofing.
Clear Wide Snow Guard
More holding surface than a small cleat
Wide Snow Guards have a much larger surface area for holding snow. This allows them to function more like a barrier than a small individual cleat.
Because each guard presents a wider face to the snowpack, a properly designed layout may require fewer rows than a layout using smaller cleat-style guards. The final quantity and arrangement must still be selected for the specific roof.
Built for maximum strength
- Extra-wide design provides more snow-holding surface area.
- Gusseted, thick-wall construction provides maximum strength.
- Manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate.
Clear protection made to endure
- Protective UV inhibitor prevents yellowing, discoloration and degradation from damaging sunlight.
- Resists Ontario temperature extremes.
- Maintains a discreet appearance across different roof colours.
Manage where snow leaves the roof
Smooth metal panels can allow accumulated snow and ice to release in a sudden sheet. Snow guards help retain and break up that movement so melting can occur more gradually.
Protect Entry Areas
Snow retention can be planned above doorways, porches, walkways and other areas where people regularly pass below the roof edge.
Protect Property
A planned system can help reduce the chance of sliding snow damaging lower roofs, landscaping, vehicles or equipment below.
Manage Roof Drainage
Controlled snow retention can help protect eavestroughs and direct meltwater toward the intended roof-drainage path.
Discreet Appearance
Clear polycarbonate allows the roof colour and profile to remain visible instead of adding a strong contrasting metal bar.
A different approach to snow retention
The best configuration depends on roof geometry, local snow conditions and the areas being protected.
