New CrossGard II Snow Fence

An economical system, CrossGard II Snow Fence comes in an aluminum mill finish that can also be requested in a powder coated finish. The system is very compact and only requires three screws per upright bracket. It can be attached onto the sheeting and is ideal for lower pitches and snow loads.

“The CrossGard II Snow Fence fits on the face of a single course of shingles,” says Brian Cross, operations manager of Rocky Mountain Snow Guards. “It was designed as a lower-cost retrofit-only snow fence option.
