Metal Roofing Supplies Box Profile Sheets Fitting Information
Installing Phoenix Steels’ roofing profiles Edinburgh is straightforward and user-friendly, making it a breeze for DIY enthusiasts or professionals tackling projects in the Lothians. Secure your box profile sheets, corrugated sheets, or tile form sheets with high-quality self-drilling screws for optimal hold against Scotland’s gusty winds and heavy rains.
For box profiles and tile form sheets, drive screws firmly through the troughs to ensure a watertight seal. On 3″ corrugated sheets, position fixings at the peaks for maximum grip. Always place screws on both sides of the lap joint, adding two extra through the central trough for unbeatable stability on your Edinburgh roof or cladding setup.
Enhance your installation with our comprehensive accessories—request trims, gutters, and fixings tailored to your needs. Apply the recommended tightening torque to every fastener to guarantee a rock-solid, weatherproof finish that lasts decades.

- Prep & Verify: Confirm all components (gutters, downspouts, brackets, fittings) are correct. Use a chalk line to mark a 6mm slope per 3m towards downspouts, aligning with existing drainage.
- Install Brackets: Space along fascia every 600–900mm per slope marks; secure with screws for wind resistance.
- Fit Gutters: Slot into brackets, fasten with clips/screws. Seal joints with gutter sealant to prevent leaks.
- Add Fittings: Attach end caps and outlets securely. Join multi-sections with connectors, riveting/screwing as needed.
- Set Downspouts: Connect to outlets with elbows for flow direction. Bracket to walls every 900–1200mm, directing water from foundations.
