It’s storm season again and the weather is ever present on people’s mind. Fas-Fit Trim Supply is focused on mitigating weather-related damage from strong winds. They have patented a panel that will add strength to any new or existing roof deck. This 26ga steel soffit and fascia panel locks down a roof in two critical places: the rafters and the sidewalls. Using this very unique design will add needed strength to the roof and provide that extra protection to weather abused structures. This one piece design makes it virtually impossible for wind to get under the deck and lift it off the structure.
The Galvalock™ panels are manufactured to exacting standards and are shaped to fit the profile of any structure. The panels have a roof flange that extends up to six inches over the decking and is covered by the roofing material – any roofing material. The panel can be painted to match any color. Galvalock™ also forms the fascia and soffit areas and then is nailed into the studs of the outside walls. Builders will appreciate the quick and easy install that requires half the time and labor of a wood based soffit and fascia.
The traditional soffit and fascia is high maintenance and in way to many cases, has been the culprit for unwanted access to the attic. This is a costly expense that Galvalock™ can eliminate. Galvalock™ panels have a micro vent in the soffit that is part of the manufacturing process, not added after the fact. This eliminates the possibility of those vents being extracted due to strong wind events subjecting homes or businesses to the elements and the rodents.
Galvalock™ is made from recycled materials and is recyclable at the end of its very long life (of up to 100 years). Testing shows 30 years (so far) of rust free results in extreme marine environments.
Galvalock will be an asset to people in every area.
*For people living in an area that experiences strong winds from storms on a regular basis – this panel is a solution.
*For people living in a marine environment where rotting is accelerated – this panel is a solution.
*For people living in an area where rodents or bats have a tendency to access the roof through soffit vents – this panel is a solution.
A maintenance free soffit and fascia is value enough but Galvalock™ does even more. It protects the roof edge from lifting during a strong wind event. The benefits are exponential in comparison. Check out http://www.fas-fit.com for more information.
