Leadworx ridge flashing abutment saddles are designed to weather the roof ridge where it abuts a chimney or the gable end of a building.
These lead flashing’s will weather the intersection of the roof ridge with a chimney or gable end of a building. To purchase, we need to know the pitch of the roof (see how to measure pitch).
LEADWORX TOOLS
Calculate from measurements, or estimate the angle from a photograph.
Measure the vertical rise and horizontal run between the same two points.
Use the same unit for both, such as mm or cm. Run is not the sloping roof length or automatically the full building width.
Enter your measurements to begin.
Enter measurements first.
These formats describe the same slope; they are not product size recommendations.
Use a square-on view of the roof profile, with a known horizontal reference in the same plane.
The photo box opens your camera on supported phones and tablets. On a computer, choose a photo file or drop one into the box.
Processed on your device by this tool. JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 20 MB and 24 megapixels. Export HEIC as JPG first.
