A1000 is one of the broader-fit Englert profiles in this guide. It supports adhesive-mounted polycarbonate snow guards and also accepts clamp-on snow guards and clamp-on snow rail systems shown as compatible in the chart. On aluminum panels, additional snow rail rows may be needed because aluminum is less rigid than steel.

A1100

The Englert Series A1100 metal roof panel is a robust, versatile roofing solution for various applications. Its sleek 1-1/4" seam contributes to its modern, streamlined appearance. The panels are available in 24 and 26-gauge steel and 0.032-inch aluminum, ensuring durability and excellent corrosion resistance. Offering a coverage width of 16 inches, these panels provide flexibility in design and installation. They come with Kynar 500® or Hylar 5000® coatings, renowned for their exceptional resistance to fading, chalking, and weathering, guaranteeing long-lasting color retention and performance. Installers should mount the panels over a solid substrate, which is crucial for maintaining the structural integrity and performance of the roofing system. Tested and rated for wind uplift performance, the Series A1100 panels comply with stringent building code requirements for various wind zones. These panels are suitable for residential and commercial applications and offer a versatile and aesthetically pleasing roofing solution.

The panels are available with Englert's proprietary ULTRA-Cool low gloss coatings or traditional Kynar 500®/Hylar 5000® finishes, offering aesthetic appeal and durability. Renowned for its resilience against harsh weather conditions, the S2000 excels in resisting wind uplift, preventing water infiltration, and providing fire protection. The system's installation method utilizes hidden clips and fasteners, resulting in a clean, seamless appearance. Versatile in its applications, the Series S2000 is equally suitable for new construction projects and renovations across commercial, industrial, and residential sectors. See the Snow Guards Compatibility Chart for Englert S2000 Standing Seam Metal Roofing Panels.

S2000 supports adhesive-mounted polycarbonate snow guards and compatible clamp-on snow retention systems, but clamp-on guards and rail systems become incompatible when optional batten strips are present. Confirm whether the installed roof includes batten strips before selecting clamp-on hardware.

S2400

The Englert Series S2400 is a versatile metal roofing solution suitable for homes and commercial structures. This standing seam panel features a sleek profile with a 2" vertical leg and 12 to 18 inches widths, contributing to its contemporary aesthetic.

See the Snow Guards Compatibility Chart for Englert C2400 Standing Seam Metal Roofing Panels.

C2400 curved panels should not use individual polycarbonate glue-down snow guards because those products require a flat attachment surface. Where compatible, use seam-mounted clamp-on SnoBar, ColorBar, or similar rail systems, and consider additional rows on aluminum or copper panels.

C1300/1301

The Englert Series 1300/1301 panels are ideal for architects, as they specifically cater to sloped roofs and various exterior surfaces in light commercial and residential projects. These panels feature a concealed clip and fastener system and require mechanical seaming to be eligible for Englert's weather-tightness warranty. Installers should mount over a solid deck on roofs with a minimum slope of ½"/12". The panels are available in various materials, including 26 and 24-gauge steel, .032" aluminum, 16 oz. copper, and .7 and .8 mm zinc (Rheinzink). The panels feature ribs that are 1-1/2" in height and 12" or 24" panel widths. Additionally, they come in a wide range of coatings and colors, with custom color matching options. The Series 1300 panels have several important ratings and certifications. They are UL-90 rated when installed over 1/2" plywood at 16" wide with clips spaced 48" o.c. (24 ga. steel). They have also been tested for water penetration (ASTM E-1646), air infiltration (ASTM E-1680), and uplift (ASTM E-1592). The coating and substrate have an ASTM E-84 Class A fire rating (24 ga. steel). Moreover, the panels are listed in the Florida Building Code product approval and are certified by Metro-Dade County. Warranty options for the Series 1300/1301 panels vary depending on the finish, ranging from 15 to 35 years. For roofs with 3"/12" or less slopes, the manufacturer recommends using MetalMan HT Underlayment to ensure optimal performance. See the Snow Guards Compatibility Chart for Englert C1300/1301 Standing Seam Metal Roofing Panels.

C1300/1301 curved or radiused panels should not use individual polycarbonate glue-down snow guards. These profiles are better served by compatible seam-mounted clamp-on snow rail systems, with additional rail rows considered when the roof is aluminum or copper.

Helpful Snow Guard Planning Notes for Englert Roofs

Snow guard selection should be based on more than panel name alone. Roof slope, panel material, seam shape, roof traffic areas, and local snow load all affect which system is appropriate and how many rows may be needed.

Confirm the Exact Englert Panel Profile

Always verify the exact panel before ordering snow guards or snow rails. Similar-looking standing seam panels can require different attachment methods depending on seam geometry, taper, curvature, and whether the roof is steel, aluminum, or copper.

Use Extra Care With Tapered Seams

Tapered seam geometry can limit clamp-on compatibility. Some Englert profiles may allow adhesive-mounted polycarbonate snow guards but not clamp-on individual guards or clamp-on snow rail systems because clamps may slide during torquing or fail to seat correctly on the seam.

Curved Panels Need Different Snow Retention Planning

Curved and radiused Englert panels should generally avoid individual glue-down polycarbonate snow guards. Those products need a flat attachment surface. Where compatible, seam-mounted clamp-on snow rail systems are typically the better approach for curved profiles.

Account for Softer Roof Metals

Aluminum and copper roof panels may require additional snow rail rows. These materials are often less rigid than steel, so the layout may need more support to maintain performance under snow load.

Schedule Installation Strategically

For adhesive-mounted polycarbonate snow guards, aim to install them during late spring or early summer. The widely-used Surebond SB-190 adhesive requires about 28 days at 50°F (10°C) for complete curing. However, it begins to resist rain after just 24 hours.

Conclusion

Choosing snow guards for Englert standing seam metal roof panels starts with the exact panel profile. Some Englert panels support adhesive-mounted polycarbonate snow guards, some also accept clamp-on snow guards and snow rail systems, and curved or tapered profiles may require narrower options. Use the compatibility chart to confirm fit before ordering, then account for roof slope, snow load, and panel material when planning the layout.
