curved roof

Return to Product Selection

Return to Forum

Hello everyone
I am planning a residence with a curved roof. The roof will be straight from the peak to the gutter, but curved like a bicycle wheel if one imagines the hub as the peak of the roof and the tire as the gutter. Can I get a metal roof for this configuration?
Thanks for your help.

To make it truly round, not segmented in any way, you will need tapered standing seam panels OR there are some metal shingles that can be curved in this way. Let me know if I can help further.

Todd is correct. you will need a tapered panel. This is something we have done for years. check out our website atas.com for tapered panels. see the attached picture.
