Why Select the Eclipse Metal Roof System to Top Off a Pole Building?

We are going to take a few moments here to tell you about the Eclipse Metal Roof System. Engineered and manufactured by Lester Buildings, a long-term pole barn builder, the Eclipse is a patented metal roofing system created to outdo all the others.

The Eclipse Roof System is strong, whether proof, and beautiful. It features the structural integrity of a through-fastened roof and has several more advantages. In comparison to a standing seam metal roof, pole building owners appreciate the lower cost and faster construction.

1.) Roof Strength

The Eclipse Roof System is stronger than other metal roofing systems. The shape and height of the major rib play unique roles. These roots are created with larger panels, usually 36 inches wide. A special rib and snap on batten system allows through-fastening of the strong and wide panels. This is only possible because of the exceptional design. You will not see it anywhere in a standing seam roof.

The Eclipse Roof System is much stronger than a shingle roof. We estimate that it will last three times longer and comes with remarkable maintenance records.

2.) Weathertight Metal Roofing

This the guard roof is weathertight. The roof fasteners are concealed. The Eclipse Roof System consists of fewer roof panels and thus fewer roof fasteners. In fact, let us compare it to a standing seam roof system. Only one-third to one-half the number of panels are necessary. For example, a normal through-fastened roof uses 83 exposed screws per 100 square feet; the Eclipse Metal Roof System only requires 33 screws per 100 square feet – and these screws are concealed and protected.

Fewer materials are necessary, including metal roof panels, porch panels, roof deck panels, purlins and more. Also, one of the options can be installed over open purlins – the 26-gauge Eclipse Roof System panel. The 26-gauge panel does not need a roof deck, saving on materials and costs.

3.) Beauty

The Eclipse Metal Roof System offers a sleek, attractive design. The unencumbered design is due to the concealing of the panel fasteners. An attractive roof batten snaps over the ribs, concealing the roof fasteners. This maintenance-free roof is excellent for re-roofing applications as well as roofing for new buildings. We believe you will find refined roof system to be an exceptional value and excellent choice.
