Model #100S:
A traditional spike style snow guard, from a design first patented in 1899. The Model #100S is historically accurate for period restorations, but is just as appropriate for new construction or retrofit application on existing slate roofs.

Because of its low profile, this model is more appropriate for residential usage. The Model #100S is for application on all slate, shake, and shingle roofs, and is designed to fit between adjacent pieces of roof material, so that only the casting is visible above the roof surface. The sheet metal installation flange and the vertical casting support are all 24 oz. (7.3 kg/m²) cold rolled copper. Our sales reps will determine the most appropriate setup for the specified roof material, and production can easily and quickly make any necessary modifications for immediate shipping. For solder application on copper roofing, specify the Model #100M.

Model #200S:
This spike style snow guard is fabricated from the same sheet metal components as the #100S, but the #200 casting is 30% larger than the #100. Both products are equally strong and effective in their capacity to hold snow on the roof, but the Model #200S is more appropriate to larger scale buildings, or where the roof material is thicker than usual, such as tile roofing.

The Model #200T is a special adaptation of the Model #200S, which has a square hook, sized to the thickness of the tile, at the distal end of the snow guard assembly for easy retrofit or new installation on tile roofs. The #200T can also be prefabricated for nail application on new tile roofing, when the snow guards are installed as the roof is being laid up. For solder application on copper roofs, specify the Model #200M.

Model #300:
A solid bronze pad style snow guard for all steep roof applications. The half round Model #300 casting is attached to a 24 oz. (7.3 kg/m²) copper installation base flange by four solid copper rivets for extreme durability and snow load bearing capacity. The solid bronze casting eliminates the corrosion problem caused by condensation which is formed inside of closed, pressed copper snow guards. The installation flange can be easily fabricated to any length for any roof application, and is also available with our Retro-Hook for easy installation on existing roofs, at no additional charge. For solder application on copper roofs, specify the Model #300M.

Model #400:

The Classic series, these are large (approximately 4" x 4") decorative bronze castings in Eagle, Oak Leaf, or Fleur-De-Lis designs. The castings are mounted on solid 1" x 1/8" copper bar stock with solid brass bolts, with a reinforcing bracket secured behind the casting to prevent the snow guard from bending over under the weight of accumulated snow. The installation bar is predrilled for easy installation. While they are decorative elements, they are also extremely durable and are capable of holding extreme loads. They are typically installed in two rows along the eaves, with subsequent rows of low profile guards to supplement the necessary snow holding design load. The Classics are available in mill finish, or with oxide or patina finishes optional.
