STEP 6: FIRST ROOF PANELS 
Components Needed 
  13” wide “W” roof panels (J) 
  Sealant tube & gun 
  #10 x 3/8” sheet metal screw 
Tools Recommended 
FIRST: Begin this step on far RIGHT side of 
hanging channel when facing the structure. 
Begin with “female” lock edge (see Step #8) of 
panel flush to hanging channel and front 
fascia. Top of panel slides below ledge of 
hanging channel to sit on groove for screw 
location. 
SECOND: Insert and press first panel firmly 
into foam rubber gasket within the hanging 
channel interior. Secure first roof panel with 
#10 x 3/8” sheet metal screw through pre-
punched hole into groove location. Move 
square post connected fascia assembly “side 
to side” so that first roof panel is square to 
fascia board or wall. 
THIRD: Each individual roof panel is 12” wide 
and need to align with 12” marked on hanging 
channel and front fascia in STEP #2. 
Each panel is designed with unique side edge 
as “male” and a “female” to interlock with 
next roof panel. 
Edge should be flush with hanging channel. 
NOTE: Single pre-drilled hole on 13” wide “W” roof panel end should be installed 
toward hanging channel to help properly secure panel by aligning hole with below screw 
channel. Opposite end of panel attaches to front fascia allowing installer to secure at 
necessary location to keep installation square and level based on post variations.
