FAQ
SnoBar Snow Rail — Common Questions
Everything you need to know about SnoBar snow rails for Canadian metal roofs.
Point-type snow guards hold snow at isolated spots, leaving gaps for uneven loads and ice dams. A continuous snow rail like SnoBar spans the full roof width as a single unbroken barrier — distributing weight evenly and controlling how and when snow releases. Recommended for steep-pitch metal roofs in high-snowload Canadian regions.
No. Both standing seam systems attach via seam clamps that grip the raised panel — zero screws, zero holes, zero penetrations. Because the roof surface is never breached, your manufacturer warranty remains intact. Seam clamp attachment is the industry-accepted non-penetrating method for standing seam accessories in Canada.
The Single Bar Screw Down system is designed for corrugated, R-panel, AG-panel, and all exposed-fastener metal roof types. Screw-mount brackets attach directly to the panel ribs for a firm permanent hold — the right choice for agricultural, commercial, and industrial buildings across Canada.
Yes. SnoBar snow rails are warehoused inside Canada and ship domestically to all provinces. Your order never crosses an international border — no import duty charges, no customs brokerage fees, no border delays. Orders are priced in CAD and shipped from Canadian stock.
Choose Double Bar if your roof is steep (above 6:12 pitch), the run is long, or you're in a high-snowload zone (BC/Alberta mountains, Quebec or Ontario high-accumulation areas). Choose Single Bar for moderate-pitch residential roofs in standard snowfall areas. When in doubt, the double bar system provides more capacity and is the safer choice.
