Description
Transform your rooftop into a realm of sophistication with the resplendent copper verdigris angel weathervane. Elevate your property's aesthetic with the circular ridge tile capping, a subtle touch that adds an extra layer of beauty to your architectural landscape. The copper verdigris finial, a crowning glory, bestows an unparalleled allure upon your roof, ensuring it captivates attention with grace and charm. As breezes dance through the air, the angel gracefully pivots, a celestial sentinel indicating the whims of the wind.
Simplified installation is at the core of the design ethos. Installers can be put off drilling and fitting brackets to or inside the roof due to the risk of water ingress. Embrace the ease of the angel weathervane, seamlessly integrating with your roof through a mortar bed installation. For added stability, a malleable metal strap with a series of holes allow a mechanical fix option to your roof by employing screws, nails, or other fixing methods to install it.
Concealing the metal strap beneath a mortar bed ensures a clean and robust installation. Versatility is a hallmark of the angel ridge weathervane, adorning turrets, towers, flat roofs, and even garden structures with equal finesse. With a towering height of 33 inches and a circular 12 inch ridge base standing at 10 inches, this magnificent weathervane seamlessly integrates into diverse architectural settings.
Explore the dimensions of elegance and practicality embodied by the copper verdigris angel weathervane. Let its presence on your roof transcend the mundane, transforming it into a visual symphony of style and functionality.
Brackets & Fixings
There are various methods for installing weathervane finials:
Traditional mortar bedding
Weathervane finials can be installed using the same process employed for ridge tiles, using standard mortar bedding. If the weathervane finial is tall, heavy, or requires enhanced stability, a supplementary mechanical fixing method can be utilised in conjunction with the mortar bed installation.
Mechanical fixing strap and mortar bedding
In this installation method, a galvanized metal strap is discreetly attached to the underside of the finial ridge base during manufacturing. This durable and flexible metal strap can be adjusted in length by cutting it down. Equipped with a series of holes, the strap can be screwed, nailed, or embedded in mortar to anchor it to a section of the roof structure. After securing the metal strap, installers can hide it from view by applying traditional mortar bed resulting in a seamless and tidy appearance.
Dry fixing
An alternative method for affixing finials to the roof is the dry fixing approach. This technique involves using a specific manufacturer's dry fixing system, typically incorporating brackets or alternative mechanical fasteners to attach ridge tiles and finials to the roof without the use of mortar. If you are considering a dry fix ridge system, please contact us to determine if this weathervane finial design can be adapted to be compatible with your chosen system.
