Welcome to Alpine SnowGuards
We manufacture our snow guards right here in Morrisville, Vermont, USA. When you order from us you are sure you're getting
quality materials in a quality product made with pride in America. We keep our most popular models and colors of snow guards
in stock, others are made to order. Generally our lead time is two working days or less, except for custom
powder coated snow guards, You won't experience long lead times with Alpine SnowGuards.
What is a snow guard? You can define snow guards as rooftop devices that allow snow and ice to drop off in small amounts
or melt completely before falling to the ground. Alpine SnowGuards' snow guards help prevent damage
caused by avalanching snow and ice while enhancing the beauty of any roofing system.
Historically used with slate roofs, snow guards are a practical, cost-effective addition
to any sloped roof in cold-weather areas. We make traditional snow guards from recycled stainless steel, brass
and aluminum and now polycarbonate (plastic) pad style snow guards.
Snow Guard Layout & Installation
Snow guards should be installed by roofing contractors or gutter installation companies.
We recommended that snow guards be installed by roofing professionals, as proper attention
must be paid to fastener strength, the structural integrity of the building and proper flashing
of the product. We do not recommend any specific roofing contractors. Homeowners should check their local
yellow pages, search the Internet or check with a local roofing/building supply company for contractors
in your area.
