  • Description

    Elevate the aesthetic allure of your rooftop with the stunning copper verdigris horse weathervane, poised gracefully on a ridge tile fitting. This enchanting weathervane introduces a fresh realm of visual charm to your roofscape. melding form with function, the poised horse elegantly responds to shifts in wind, offering not just an ornate addition but also a pragmatic weather gauge.

    Diverging from the conventional terracotta colour of standard ridge tile fixtures, the offering extends a spectrum of alternative colours and finishes, empowering you to tailor it to your distinct preferences.

    Why opt for this installation method over traditional brackets?

    The answer lies in streamlining the installation process while safeguarding your roof's structural integrity. Traditional bracket installation often involves drilling into the roof or attic, a practice deterred by concerns of water infiltration. Contrarily, affixing this horse weathervane involves securing the ridge onto the roof with mortar, presenting multiple angle options to accommodate diverse roof pitches.

    For enhanced versatility and installer convenience, we furnish a robust metal strap as a mechanical fix fitting. This flexible strap, easily cut to size, features multiple holes for secure attachment to the roof via screws, nails, or other methods. Once in place, the strap discreetly disappears beneath the standard mortar bedding of the ridge, ensuring a sleek installation process.

    These horse ridge weathervanes grace gables, house roofs, buildings, cottages, sheds, workshops, and more. Beyond rooftops, they make striking garden embellishments, infusing outdoor spaces with captivating focal points and intricate detailing. Choose this horse weathervane to augment your roof or garden with both visual appeal and practical functionality, making a bold statement and uplifting your surroundings.

  • Brackets & Fixings

    This weathervane finial can insalled in the following ways:

    Mortar bedding:

    The traditional installation method is to bed the finial onto the roof using mortar, in the same way as ridge tiles are fitted. For larger or heavier finials, additional mechanical fixing can be used for extra stability.

    Mechanical strap fixing with mortar:

    Many finials are supplied with a concealed galvanised metal fixing strap secured beneath the ridge base. The adjustable strap can be cut to length and fixed to the roof structure using screws, nails or mortar. Once installed, the strap is hidden beneath the mortar bedding, leaving a clean and seamless finish.

    Dry fixing systems:

    Some roofs use dry fix systems that secure ridge tiles and finials without mortar. These systems typically use brackets or mechanical fixings. If you are using a dry ridge system, please contact us to confirm whether your chosen finial can be adapted for compatibility.
