Hello Group
Trying to find out which manufactuers clamps were used on my install in 2014, as one Mid Clamp is broken (found with cam-out on the star torx stainless screw and the aluminuim sheared) so i can replace. The installer is nolonger trading.
The installer told me they used Renousol...
Hi guys, Can any recommend a flat roof mounting system that they’ve used that has as small as a 5 degree tilt (or completely flat) on the panels?
Client doesn’t want to apply for planning permission by going over the existing height of the building (top of the ridge). And there’s only 180mm...
Hello fellow installers.
I have just been to see a potential customer who works out of an industrial unit. Now the external of the building has steel cladding or as some call it corrugated sheet metal. Now I plan on installing some Hikvision bullet cameras on the external, and have never...
Hi,
I've been having difficulty mounting a bracket on a brick wall, the bracket needs to be able to hold 15kg and comes with sleeve anchors but for some reason they don't seem to hold. I've bought replacement sleeve anchors and these also do not hold (not sure why as I'm drilling the right size...
Hi
Anyone know who stocks this? We need to add to an existing installation so would be nice to match it. Segen dont do it any more which is a shame because it is good stuff.
thanks
Hi guys, I need some suggestions. I have a job next weekend in which the customer has asked for outdoor sockets to be mounted on a steel fixing coming from the ground and I'm stumped with what to use?
Any help?
Anyone installed on Kingspan KS1000LP lo-pitch roof?
http://images6.kingspanpanels.co.uk/file/asset/12576/original/UK_R_LP_Lo-Pitch_Product_Data_Sheet.pdf
Kingspan are quoting just over £1500 for a 28 panel system using their own mounting kit. Seems rather pricey to me.
Any alternatives?
We've unearthed a few boxes of roof hooks, fixings and some limpits - we need to make some room in the warehouse and not planning on doing any installations in the near future so if anyone can make use of them then make me a (sensible) offer. Pick up in Sheffield or can arrange delivery for a...
I have been asked to replace a module damaged by a fallen tv aerial in the recent storm. The system was installed by another company that has gone into liquidation.
Customer has sent a photo of the damaged panel. What draws my attention is the mounting system, instead of the usual clamps there...
Does anyone recognise this clamp? We've been called out to sort out a job where the installer's apparently gone bust and disappeared after fitting the rails and left a pallet-load of panels on a customer's patio.
There's no scaffold - they did it from ladders - but now it's snowing. They seem...
Hi everyone,
As you know each surface mount box for a lighting switch has two threaded metal tabs for the screws to attach the front switch plate. On one of our boxes the threads have been wrung off and as a result the screws no longer tighten.
Is there a solution to this problem, without...
My system was installed nearly 5 years ago and so far trouble free.

Hi all, just a quick question, I've got an outside security light to mount for someone, but I'm struggling to come up with a decent way to mount it.
Basically the light is to be placed at the back of a garden overlooking a small area of land the homeowner has for parking but has recently been...
Hey all.
Has anyone experience mounting a 42 or 50" tv on cob wall?
I've heard of putting threaded rod through the wall and bolting the other side or using resin but not sure whether it's a good idea.
The property is almost 200 years old so fixings may be an issue.
Cheers
I’ve got a project which has 10 LED Surface fittings whichhave separate drivers and are DALI controlled. It’s not possible to put the driversnear the fittings and they need to be mounted centrally. There is no problem withthe cable length/ sizing between the two.
The architect has suggested...
We went to look at a job this morning where were being asked to refit some solar panels after a roof had been re-slated. The roofer said that he'd refitted the brackets exactly in the same places as before and using the same method.
First of all, the brackets were 'screwed' directly through...
Hi all,
Anyone ever had a look at this type of mounting system before? I've been talking to a European manufacturer who has some very interesting tensile steel solutions that can not only be used for "standard" requirements, but also offer some clever solutions for array locations normally...
