The VersaBracket is made for trapezoidal exposed-fastened profiles.
Tools Needed
• Electric Screw Gun*
• Rag
• String Line
must be mounted directly over and into the supporting structure of the roof,
i.e. wood decking, wood or steel purlins or trusses, NEVER into the metal
To ensure brackets are installed in a straight line when desired, install a
single VersaBracket on each end of the roof at a measured, consistent
distance from the bottom edge of the roof. Use a string line between the
two brackets. Mount the remaining VersaBracket along the string line,
directly into the supporting structure of the roof.
To Install VersaBracket
™
1. Determine the location of the supporting structure of the roof. When possible, secure the VersaBracket using all hole
locations; when not possible, always use the two upslope hole locations. The only surface preparation necessary is to
simply wipe away excess oil and debris.
2. Peel the release paper from the base, align, and apply to roof surface.
3. Secure the VersaBracket by drilling screws through pre-punched holes, directly into the supporting structure of the
roof (3 holes are provided for convenience and versatility). Consult the S-5! Load Table for more information.
