OUTSIDE CLOSURE

After all panel runs are installed and seamed, return to first panel run at the ridge. Remove temporary fasteners from panel and install Tri-Bead tape sealer across full width of panel, covering the prepunched holes.

Rotate outside closure into position contacting the female side of the panel first. Using an awl, align the first hole on the female side of the outside closure with the corresponding hole in the panel and back-up plate. Remove the awl and install Fastener #1 E in this hole.

Push the other end of the outside closure into position and align the holes with the awl. Remove the awl and install Fastener #1 E in all remaining holes except for the hole at the panel seam. Do not install the panel seam fastener at this time.

Install all outside closures on both sides of the ridge.

If the last panel run was field modified, the final outside closure on the last panel will require field modification as well. A tab should be formed on the end of the outside closure for attachment to the upturned leg of the roof panel (field formed). This tab should be attached to the panel with Fastener #1 E, two required.

Install Fastener #1 E in remaining hole at the panel seam of all outside closures. The fastener installed in the top hole must go through the panel seam and the corresponding hole of the adjacent outside closure.

Use urethane sealant to fill any voids around panel seam on upslope side of outside closure.
