Manthorpe’s Smart Verge Linear Dry Verge is a dry-fix system for finishing the verge of a roof.

It has been designed for use with slates and interlocking plain tiles, providing a strong mechanical fixing method without the need for mortar. It has been independently wind tunnel-tested to meet BS5534 requirements for mechanical fixings. The system is suitable for new build and refurbishment on roofs of 15-55° pitch. It is made from PVCu and is available in slate grey, black, white, terracotta and dark brown.
