The Model #100 is historically accurate for period restorations, but is just as appropriate for new construction or retrofit application on existing slate roofs. Because of its low profile, this model is more appropriate for residential usage.

The Mullane 300S-RH copper/bronze retrohook style snow guard is for installing on existing roofs. The solid bronze casting eliminates the corrosion problem caused by condensation which is formed inside of closed, pressed copper snow guards. The installation flange can be easily fabricated to any length for any roof application.
18" long, 2.5" wide, protrudes up from the roof about 2". The half round Model 300 casting is attached to a 20 oz. copper installation base flange by four brass rivets for extreme durability and snow load bearing capacity. The solid bronze casting is extremely durable and rugged, tested at 870 lbs. of pressure.
This snow guard has a "reach" of about 13.5". It can slide up underneath the slates 13.5" maximum before engaging the top of the underlying slate. For a typical 24" long slate with a 3" headlap and a 10.5" exposure (13.5" unexposed), the snow guard should just have enough reach to slide underneath, slide the length of the unexposed area, and hook over the top of the slate. Shorter slates will leave more of the snow guard exposed. One advantage to this snow guard is that you can install it over the head of slates on random width roofs and still maintain a uniform layout on the snow guards because you don't have to line the snow guards up with the slots.
$19.00 each.

This allows the snow guard to be more easily used on roofs with 24" long slates and on graduated slate roofs. More about retrofit snow guard "reach."This is a good all-around retrofit snow guard for use on roofs with any size slate. The solid, low-profile face prevents the bending and twisting often seen on snow guards with higher profiles, while still retaining snow loads. Retrofit snow guards are designed to be added to already existing slate roofs. Regular snow guards are designed to be installed on new slates roofs when the slate is being installed.
FOR RAFTER LENGTHS UP TO 16 FEET: Traditionally, in the Midwest snow guards have been installed 30" to 36" on center in each row, with 3 staggered rows beginning above the outside wall at the eave. In the northeast, snow guards are typically installed at every other slate horizontally, and staggered at every horizontal slate course or every other horizontal slate course vertically, with 3 horizontal rows minimum.
FOR RAFTER LENGTHS OVER 16 FEET: The number of rows is increased with rafter lengths over 16 feet and with roof pitches greater than 6:12. Increased snow load in some states require additional snow guards per square farther up the roof.We offer free shipping on orders of sufficient quantity.
