Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Gravel guards like this protect the membrane termination at ballasted and gravel-stop edges, keeping loose aggregate away from the metal edge. Choose the 1/2" rise and grip profile where the detail calls for a locked edge engagement, and overlap joints consistently in the direction of water flow. Match gauge and finish across all perimeter metal on the job for uniform weathering.
Cut edges of formed sheet-metal flashing are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection during handling and installation.
Order the Able Sheet Metal 28 gauge 3" x 2" galvanized gravel guard for your next commercial roof-edge job.
