Rooster weathervane supplied on a 45 degree ridge tile finial
- Description
Introducing the exquisite steel rooster weathervane finial. A charming and functional rooftop embellishment that combines the grace of tradition with modern design. Meticulously crafted from steel, this weathervane not only adds a touch of elegance but also serves as a practical weather indicator. The rooster weathervane figure gracefully pivots with the breeze, whimsically pointing out the prevailing wind direction. The standard terracotta ridge tile base ensures a seamless fit with your rooftop, although custom colours and finishes are available upon request.
Standing at an impressive 39 inches (99 cm) in height, with the ridge base angled at 45 degrees, measuring 12 inches (296 mm) in length and 9 inches (225 mm) in width, it commands attention without overwhelming your roofline.
Choosing this weathervane finial means opting for a low hassle installation process. Unlike bracket mounted options, which can pose concerns about water penetration and roof modifications, the ridge tile fitting securely attaches using mortar, ensuring a smooth install. For added convenience, a durable and adaptable strap is included, complete with a range of holes for various attachment methods.
Not limited to rooftops, the rooster weathervane can also elevate your garden decor, serving as a captivating ornamental focal point. Whether adorning gable ends, hip ends, houses, cottages, sheds, workshops, or summer houses, this versatile finial infuses intricate detailing and timeless charm into your surroundings. Embrace the opportunity to enhance your roofscape's visual appeal with this enchanting weathervane finial.
- 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.
