FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What’s special about your roof fixing method, how does it work?
Monkeytoe top fixing roofing clips have specially fabricated jack stud which is threaded into the roofing clip then sits on the purlin below.
The jack stud is then tek screwed onto the purlin and the Monkeytoe clip screws down the outside of the stud until it is sealed onto the roofing profile. Using this unique Monkey Toe fixing, all loads are transferred to the building structure – not the roofing product.
How do we know whether the roof profile is top fixed or hidden fixed profile?
Generally you will see a nail or tek screw line in a top fixed profile.
