Description

The double hip gargoyle roof finial is a detailed gargoyle finial that features the gargoyle sitting on an ornamental fleur de lis finial. The gargoyle finial is well suited to a double hipped, square or pyramid shaped roof as the ridge base is square

Four sided roof sabre roof finial measurementsVoid measurements: If you turn the finial upside down there is a 185mm (7") pyramid shaped void which is angled at 45°. The void may allow for the finial to fit over existing tiles or the roof structure depending on the angle or design of the roof (you can also install the finial on a flat base too). The full measurements of the pyramid void are as follows:
D: The depth of the void is 185mm (7"). L x W: The void starts off at 245mm x 245mm (9.75") at the widest point and narrows down to 20mm (1") at the thinnest point
Fitting: Double hip end for a 4 sided, square or pyramid roof
Material: Concrete based roofing product

Performance & Quality: All products are certified and tested to BS EN 490:2004 & BS EN 491:2004. The product is freeze\thaw resistant and the default finish is similar to the appearance of clay products
Installing the gargoyle: The gargoyle can be fitted in place with a combination of mortar to bed them in
and also mechnically via a metal strap. The metal strap is on the underside of the finial out of view. Finials include a flexible metal strap on the underside of the ridge tile section out of view which allows optional mechanical fixing so the finial can be fixed to the roof structure with either a nail or screw and then the mortar bed then hides the metal strap and further strengthens the install. The metal strap is strong, flexible and can be uncoiled and cut to size and makes the fitting look nice and neat
