Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Gravel guards are essential where aggregate-surfaced roofs meet flashing, since gravel that rides against edge metal accelerates wear and can block drainage. This 28-gauge brown profile suits low-profile commercial details; on higher-exposure edges or in high-wind zones, verify the specified edge metal detail with the roofing manufacturer. Overlap or butt joints per the detail and secure to the deck or nailer per the roofing system specification.
Sheet metal edges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when handling, cutting, and installing gravel guard.
