S-5! Bracket Two-Pipe Snow Retention for Metal Roofs DualGard
The DualGard bracket is the core bracket for S-5’s two-pipe, 1″ snow retention system. It provides a rigid seat for the aluminum cross-pipes and attaches to the roof via S-5 mini clamps on standing seams or with CorruBracket on corrugated panels—delivering strong, non-penetrating snow retention on metal roofs.
Key Benefits
Two-Pipe Strength: Works with 1″ aluminum pipes in a fence-style layout for effective snow retention.
Stable & Secure: Bracket design adds lateral stability; two anchor points reduce moment arm for added strength.
Versatile Roof Compatibility: Pairs with S-5 mini clamps on standing seams and with CorruBracket for corrugated panels.
Finish Options: Aluminum pipes/brackets can be anodized or powder-coated to complement the roof.
Applications
Standing Seam Metal Roofs: Continuous snow fence lines on commercial, industrial, and residential projects.
Corrugated Metal Roofs: Use with CorruBracket where decking is present.
Installation
Clamp-Attached: Each bracket typically uses two S-5 mini clamps; one clamp is fastened on the upslope side of the bracket. Follow span/layout per S-5’s engineering and site loads.
Optional DualClips: Add DualClip II/III to the lower pipe to reduce snow/ice migration beneath the fence (size based on seam height).
Special Technology
Non-Penetrating Attachment: Preserves roof integrity on standing seams by clamping to the seam rib instead of through-fastening.
Systemized Accessories: Compatible with S-5 aluminum cross-pipes, splices, collars, and end caps for continuous runs.
Warranty
Covered by S-5!’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, which protects against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the roof on which the product is installed.
What this means in practice:
-
Coverage lasts as long as the roof remains in service
-
Applies when the product is installed correctly and used as intended
-
Remedy is repair or replacement of the defective product, at S-5!’s discretion
