Looking for a Match

Return to I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Return to Forum

We are adding on to our shed and having difficulty finding a match to the current steel. Whats on now is Rigid-Rib by Republic steel 78b14. Any info, tips, or leads would be greatly appreciated, thank you!!0915201055~2.jpg

Unfortunately I am not sure you will find an exact match. Republic Steel is still around but I do not believe they manufacture metal roof and wall panels any longer. You might be able to track down an "old timer" or someone retired from there (perhaps through LinkedIn) to get some idea of what happened to their old steel panel tooling. The Warren plant is now an Arcelor Mittal plant I believe. Some folks have used Fabral's Prime Rib panel as a close match to Rigid Rib. Please feel free to send me photos showing the overall panel shape and perhaps I will have some other ideas. My email is [email protected]
