Anyone who has installed snow guards in winter months knows it can be a frustrating adventure.  Not only do you have to worry about the working conditions, good snow guard adhesives need 30 days above 50 degrees to cure properly.  If you have the opportunity to use clamp on snow guards then you should do so.  The one we would recommend is the Rib Guard clamp on snow guard.  They are much easier to install and can be installed anytime of the year. 

Before the design of clamp on snow guards, home owners and roofers had to penetrate the roof surface or resort to using adhesive in order to attach snow guards to a roof.  This is no longer the case.  The Rib Guard Snow Guard is a clamp on style snow guard that allows installation in any weather (although we don’t recommend climbing around on a metal roof during a lightning storm). The clamp on Rib Guard attaches to the standing seam rib of a metal roof. 

Using a clamp on style snow guard can save you money and enhance the look of your roof system.  Our Rib Guard clamp on snow guards are not only one of the best products on the market, they are also the most economical snow guard available. Rib Guard clamp on snow guards are economical, easy to install, and enhance the look of any roofing system with their sleek design.

Well it's official. We have entered the world of blogging.  Here is a little information about us and our product. 

We at Sno Shield are the inventors of the Sno Shield line of products.  Sno Shield's line of products include snow guards for metal roofs and rib guards.  A rib guard is basically a snap on snow shield which makes installation of snow guards easier and faster.  We have more than 20 years of experience in the roofing industry and are heavily involved in the large, commercial construction market where snow guards are used extensively due to liability and property damage issues. We focus mainly on the “big-box” retail facilities, but we have experience with numerous roofing projects.  We have installed metal roofs for schools, medical facilities, and residential developments as well.  At Sno Shield we have installed various kinds of roofs in more states than most people probably travel in a lifetime. We have worked in every type of weather imaginable. We’ve seen and scrutinized just about every type of snow guard on the market and know what works and what does not when it comes to stopping snow from sliding off of metal roofs.
