What is Standing Seam With Mechanical Lock?

The Standing Seam Mechanically Locked system is one of the most sophisticated and long lasting metal roofing systems available today. Featuring long vertical panels with raised seams that are mechanically folded together (single (90°) or double (180°) lock), creating a secure, watertight seal. It's a system that has no exposed fasteners that can leak or corrode and that looks clean and modern.

Designed for optimal performance, this metal roofing system delivers outstanding resistance to wind uplift, heavy rainfall, and snow loads, making it an excellent choice for both residential and commercial buildings. Its streamlined design enhances curb appeal, while its durable construction offers decades of reliable protection with little to no maintenance required. Furthermore, reflective coatings and energy-efficient materials help regulate building temperatures, resulting in lower overall energy usage.
