Product Information

Full details

The Manthorpe Dry Verge Ridge Cap is designed for roofing contractors and homeowners seeking a secure, weather-resistant finish at the apex of a gable roof. This round-profile component provides a soft, aesthetic transition for dry verge systems while shielding the ridge tile ends from wind and rain, though users should ensure their existing verge units are compatible with a round profile before purchase.

FAQs

Is this cap compatible with angled ridge tiles?

No, this specific model is designed for round ridge tiles only.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a screwdriver or drill driver and standard roofing safety equipment.

Does this cap require maintenance?

Minimal maintenance is required; a visual inspection for loose fasteners once a year is sufficient.

Where does the screw go?

The screw should be driven through the designated blind nail hole on the cap into the ridge batten.

Can this be painted?

The product is manufactured in a brown finish; painting is not recommended as it may affect the material properties.

Troubleshooting

Cap does not sit flush against the verge units

Check if the ridge batten is installed at the correct height and ensure the verge units are aligned properly.

Screw is loose or won't bite into the batten

Ensure you are using the correct length of screw and that it is hitting the center of the ridge batten.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic roofing hand tools. First, ensure your ridge battens are installed to the correct height to accommodate the cap. Position the cap so it hooks over the ridge tile and sits flush against the verge units on both sides. Use the provided screws to fasten the unit through the blind nail hole directly into the timber batten. Periodic inspections are recommended to ensure the screws remain tight and the cap remains unobstructed by debris. Compatibility is restricted to round ridge tiles; verify your tile profile before installation.
