What Are the Components of NEXGEN’s Perimeter Edge Systems?

Fascia to Water Control

Our perimeter edge systems are designed with a range of high-performance components to meet the needs of every project. These components work together to provide optimal protection, durability, and aesthetic appeal:

  • Fascia: A critical element that adds a clean, finished look to the building’s roof edge while providing protection against the elements.
  • Coping: Designed to cap the top of parapet walls, coping provides structural stability and a barrier against weather-related damage, ensuring long-term durability.
  • Counter Flashings: These flashings ensure a watertight seal where the roof meets the building’s exterior walls, preventing leaks and water infiltration.
  • Gravel Stop: A protective edge designed to prevent gravel or loose materials from spilling over the roof’s edge, contributing to the roof’s structural integrity.
  • Ledge Caps: These caps protect ledge areas from water damage and provide a smooth, secure finish to the roof’s perimeter.
  • Water Control Components:
    • Gutter Systems: Efficiently collect and direct water runoff away from the building, reducing the risk of water damage.
    • Scuppers: Installed at strategic locations, scuppers allow water to flow off the roof and into the gutter system, effectively managing water flow.
    • Collector Boxes: These boxes are designed to gather water from multiple scuppers and direct it into downspouts, ensuring optimal drainage.
    • Downspouts: Essential for directing water away from the building foundation, downspouts help prevent water buildup around the structure.

Each component is fabricated to ANSI/SPRI ES-1specifications.
