Everything you need in one order — pre-counted screw-down guards, stainless hardware, EPDM gaskets, and a layout guide sized to your roof and snow load zone. No missing pieces, no second trips to the supplier.
📦
Complete Kit — One Order
Screw-down snow guards, stainless steel fasteners, EPDM gaskets, and a step-by-step installation guide — all matched and shipped together. Nothing to source separately on install day.
❄️
Rated to -40°C
All-metal construction holds full structural integrity in extreme sub-zero temperatures across Northern Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and the Prairies — no cracking, no creep, no failure.
🏗️
Pre-Calculated for Your Snow Load
Kits are sized to your roof pitch, rafter length, panel type, and regional PSF load — so you get exactly the right number of guards for full-roof coverage without over-ordering.
⚠️
Reduces Liability & Risk
Helps meet NBCC safety expectations above walkways, loading docks, and high-traffic areas — one correctly installed kit is the most cost-effective way to manage that exposure.
Screw-Down Metal Snow Guard Kits for R-Panel, PBR & Corrugated Roofs
Our screw-down kits are built for exposed-fastener and ribbed metal roof profiles — the most common metal roof type on Canadian residential, agricultural, and light commercial buildings.
Most Popular Kit
Individual Screw-Down Snow Guard Kit
The individual guard kit includes metal screw-down snow stops pre-counted for your panel layout, plus stainless steel fasteners and high-grade EPDM gaskets — everything needed for a watertight mechanical installation. Designed for R-Panel, PBR, corrugated, and ribbed metal profiles. Guards fasten directly through the panel flat into the purlin or decking below, creating maximum shear resistance. Each kit ships with a placement guide calculated for your slope and PSF load zone so every guard lands in the correct position.
- Includes: Guards + stainless fasteners + EPDM gaskets + layout guide
- Profiles: R-Panel, PBR, corrugated, ribbed
- Fastens into: Purlins or roof decking
- Best for: Residential, agricultural, light commercial

High Snow Load Screw-Down Kit — Heavy PSF Zones
For roofs in Northern Ontario, Quebec, the Maritimes, Alberta foothills, and BC mountain corridors where ground snow loads exceed 50 PSF, a high-density screw-down kit provides tighter guard spacing and higher shear capacity per row. Includes additional guards calculated for the elevated load, all stainless hardware, and EPDM gaskets rated for aggressive freeze-thaw cycling. Identical installation method to the standard kit — just more guards, closer together, exactly where they need to be.
- Includes: Guards + stainless fasteners + EPDM gaskets + high-load layout guide
- Designed for: PSF loads above 50
- Spacing: Tighter rows calculated for your load zone
- Best for: Northern regions, mountain corridors, heavy-snowfall zones

Screw-Down Metal Snow Guard Kits FAQ — Canada
Can't find your answer? Ask us →What does a screw-down metal snow guard kit include?
Each kit includes metal screw-down snow guards pre-counted for your roof size, stainless steel fasteners, high-grade EPDM-sealed gaskets, and a step-by-step installation and layout guide. Everything is matched and shipped together — no separate hardware runs required. You'll have every component needed to complete the installation in one delivery.
What metal roof profiles do screw-down snow guard kits work on?
Screw-down snow guard kits are designed for exposed-fastener and ribbed metal roof profiles — including R-Panel, PBR, corrugated, and ribbed metal panels. These are the most common metal roof types on Canadian residential homes, barns, farm buildings, shops, and light commercial structures. If your roof has visible screws or ribs running down the slope, a screw-down kit is the right solution.
How do I know which kit size I need for my screw-down metal roof?
Kit sizing depends on your panel type, roof pitch, rafter length, and your region's ground snow load (PSF). Higher-load zones — Northern Ontario, the Maritimes, Alberta foothills, and BC mountain corridors — require more guards per row and tighter row spacing than southern residential roofs. Request a free layout quote and we'll calculate the exact guard count, row placement, and fastener spec for your specific roof.
Will screw-down snow guards leak or damage my metal roof?
No — when properly installed with the included EPDM-sealed gaskets. Each fastener point is sealed with a high-grade EPDM gasket specifically rated for metal roofing and Canadian freeze-thaw cycling. EPDM maintains its seal flexibility down to -40°C, so the fastener points stay watertight through the most aggressive winter-to-spring thaw cycles. Correct fastener placement into purlins or decking (as outlined in the included layout guide) is critical for both seal integrity and shear performance.
Can I install a screw-down snow guard kit myself?
Yes — screw-down kits are designed for contractor and DIY installation. You'll need a drill and a basic socket set. Each kit ships with a full layout guide covering guard placement, row spacing, fastener torque, and EPDM gasket seating. Following the guide precisely — especially fastening into purlins rather than the panel flat alone — ensures maximum holding strength and a watertight seal.
Do the kits ship from within Canada?
Yes — all screw-down metal snow guard kits are stocked in Canada and ship nationwide with no U.S. customs, duty, or brokerage fees. Orders typically ship same or next business day for in-stock kits. We deliver to every province and territory, from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland and Labrador.
Do I need a snow guard kit if I already have gutters on my metal roof?
Yes — gutters are one of the first things metal roof snow slides destroy. A full sheet of snow and ice releasing off an unprotected corrugated or R-Panel roof can rip gutters and downspouts clean off the fascia. A properly installed screw-down snow guard kit holds snow in place so it melts gradually — protecting gutters, downspouts, and everything below the roofline.
Screw-Down Snow Guard Kits for Residential, Agricultural & Commercial Metal Roofs
Roof avalanches on corrugated and R-Panel metal roofs aren't just a nuisance — they're a liability. A properly installed screw-down snow guard kit is the most direct way to protect people and property below.
-
01Residential Homes & Cottages Screw-down kits protect gutters, entryways, decks, and vehicles below steep R-Panel and corrugated roofs — especially critical on homes in heavy-snowfall zones across Ontario, Quebec, and BC
-
02Agricultural Buildings & Barns Cost-effective screw-down kits for corrugated and R-Panel barn roofs — protect livestock, equipment, and personnel from roof snow slides on farm buildings across Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Alberta
-
03Light Commercial & Retail Buildings Screw-down kits on PBR and R-Panel commercial roofs protect customer walkways, loading docks, and parking areas — reducing liability above high-traffic zones at service centres and storefronts
