to allow for panel expansion during hot weather.
See the proper calculations above.

• Cutting Roof Panels to Length
• Removing the Protective Film
• Out of the box, the Roof Panels and Profile parts are already
cut to the proper size to fit together.
• If cutting Roof Panels is required, here’s how to measure the
proper Roof Panel length:
A
– Length of aluminum Profile
B
– MINUS 1/8" for every 3' of aluminum Profile
EQUALS
– Total length of each Roof Panel
For example, if your aluminum Profile is 9 feet long,
then your Roof Panel will be 8 feet, 11-5/8 inch long.
Measure and cut all Roof Panels to the correct length, if required.
Remove the protective film from the BOTTOM of the Roof Panel BEFORE installation.
• Leave the protective film on TOP of the Roof Panel until AFTER installation. SEE PAGE 13.
