ColorGard

When snow accumulations begin to melt, the result can be catastrophic as the blanket of

snow avalanches o the roof, dumping tons of snow onto anything in its path, damaging

landscape, gutters, adjacent roofs, and vehicles, and causing injury or death to passers-by.

ColorGard

dramatically reduces the risks associated with rooftop avalanches and maintains

the clean colorful appearance of the roof with perfect color and nish matching, which

lasts as long as the roof itself! ColorGard is the only snow retention system designed and

engineered on a site-specic basis; guaranteed to perform, to not damage the roof or nish, and to

exactly match the roof color—for the entire life of the roof*.

Today’s premium Kynar 500

and Hylar 5000

(PVDF) paint systems used on metal panels are “coil-

coated” and oven-cured. This is the only nish application method that can be warranted against color

fade for 30 years or longer. Nothing can equal it! So, why settle for less in a snow guard system? While

some dyes, powder-coats and air-dried color application methods may initially simulate a perfect

match, the color soon begins to fade and becomes increasingly mismatched with a few years of age.

By utilizing a strip of the actual roof material, ColorGard perfectly matches the roof—forever!

ColorGard is mechanically attached with patented S-5!

clamps. S-5! is the trusted name in metal

rooftop attachment technology worldwide. S-5! patented, round-point setscrews grip the seam

securely without penetration and without damage to the panel’s protective nishes. The clamps

are precision-machined from aircraft quality, high tensile aluminum—not cast or plastic. All related

hardware is non-ferrous stainless steel for lasting performance.
