EASY INSTALLATION ON THE ROOF

ClickFit EVO Standing Seam: quick & easy
ClickFit EVO for standing seam roofs has been specially developed for mounting the renowned ClickFit EVO system on standing seam roofs. The mounting system consists of only 4 components with which all standard solar panels can be mounted on standing seam roofs with only 1 tool. With ClickFit EVO you can mount the solar panels on the roof in next to no time! The clamps which fix the rails to the folded seam are pre-assembled and ready equipped with the well-known ClickFit EVO click connection and a Torx screw. This saves you a lot of installation time.
From single-folded and double-folded to round seams
The ClickFit EVO system is suitable for most common standing seam roofs, with the exception of copper seam roofs. There are clamps for single- or double- folded seams, snap and round seams. We are proudly using the patented S-5! clamps as the basis for our mounting solution. Choose the appropriate clamp for the respective seam type. The clamp is pre-assembled with our unique ClickFit EVO click connection; all that’s needed is to tighten the clamp with the Torx screw on the seam. Then snap the rails into the click connections and mount the solar panels. The seam clamps do not penetrate the roof, so the roof remains completely impervious to water.
Both horizontal and vertical rails possible
Thanks to the rotatable ClickFit EVO click connection on the seam clamps, the mounting system can be used for both portrait and landscape orientation with a horizontal and vertical rail. To obtain the maximum rigidity in the system, we recommend mounting the rails horizontally over the seams. An additional advantage: this orientation offers a lot of flexibility in the positioning of the solar panels.

Our tip: use our calculator to generate a calculation for your project; there is a good chance that due to the high rigidity of the ClickFit EVO system, you can skip some seams, reducing your purchase costs and installation time!
