Kingspan Option

Trad. Slate v's Nu-lok

 
The Nu-lok System
Designed in Australia and used in hugely diverse climates worldwide.

The secret of a Nu-lok
roof lies in replacing traditional
wooden battens with a
lightweight galvanised steel
grid system.
 

The patented system incorporates specially designed link channels containing a high grade 316 steel clip for securing the leading tile edge, locked in place between galvanised steel battens.

This link channel eliminates the need for double-lapping of slates, as water passing through the gaps between slates is automatically routed onto the surface of the slate below.
As a result, the Nu-lok system requires fewer slates and less labour than traditional roofing methods, to deliver a surprisingly affordable roofing option. At 27 kg per square metre, this unique design is not only incredibly lightweight, but can support installers’ weight with ease.
 
Choice of Shingle
Ceramic Slate - The system allows the use of both a ceramic slate (baked at 1200C) and strong enough for a roofer to to walk on - guaranteed colourfast for 50 years. It simply will not fade over time.

Natural Slate - The alternative choice of natural slate shingles.
 
Ease of Shingle Replacement
Shingles can be replaced in seconds without resorting to mechanicl fixings or any tools.
