What Is Gable Trim?
Gable trim is used to finish off the edge of your roof. It’s installed on the two high sides of the roof, not the low side of the roof that follows the pitch. There is also a kick-out on the bottom of the gable trim that will help direct water away from your wall. A gable trim provides a watertight seal for your roof when combined with a sealant.
Rake Trim Versus Gable Trim
You might hear these two terms and be wondering what the difference is. Not to worry - gable and rake are just interchangeable terms for the exact same thing.
Does A Metal Roof Need Gable Trim?
Gable trim serves an integral role in strengthening and sealing your entire roof system. Gable trim creates watertight transitions in the critical locations where the roof’s slope or direction changes. Together with metal roofing panels, gable trim reduces the chance of water leaking through ceilings. If you want a clean looking and weather-tight roof, then you will need gable trim.
Installing Gable Trim: A Step-By-Step Guide
We would suggest that you read the manufacturers installation guide prior to installation of gable flashing on a metal roof. You’ll also want to make sure to be in compliance with local building code requirements.
Supplies you will need to install gable trim:
Metal cutting snips
Hand seamer
Carpenter’s pencil
Roofing gloves
Caulking gun
Silicone sealant
Protractor
Speed square
Sliding T-Bevel
Combination square
Double sided Butyl Tape

Hi your videos are very informative thank you I’m doing detailing work on this field can you give me a jobs for detailing…
Great videos. Helped me a ton. Wish I had found your channel before I started. Would have saved me from a few learning moments.
I make trim, and it helps me understand how it's installed when I bend my pieces
Hi, it's me again love this trim work. It's very HELPFUL.... thank you guys
More videos.
That was handy to watch
Just wanted to send you guys some love from Canada for all the help your videos have provided during our "Chicken Fortress" build. Take care and stay safe . Thank you 😎
It's videos like this that push people to hire a professional
Thank you.🥰
It would be worthwhile to make a video of gable/rake trim installed at a high->low pitch transition because that's a tricky spot.
Oggy, You're absolutely correct and we appreciate the feedback. That one is on our list, but it's a long list before we get to it. Stay tuned as one of these days we will get it filmed and uploaded on the channel.
Do you guys have stores in Canada or have your products in Canada
Do you have a video showing a shed roof install?
Was there a reason in doing the end before the ridge? It seems like it's backwards, thanks.
Great videography and instruction. Maybe skip the annoying music next time, feels like a commercial... :)
Greg, I appreciate the positive feedback and suggestions for future videos. Glad we could help with your installation.
My barn has this detail and it's leaking at 30 years. Not bad but now I have to caulk this seam again and it will never seal like it did when the metal was new. A better approach I've found is a mechanical approach without caulking and trough fastening. Fold the panel over the rake using a T drip for the cleat similar to this: ruclips.net/video/Nv3lerxWLH8/видео.html
Robert, I appreciate the comment. The video that you have shown will work great for a standing seam panel. This video is intended to cover the installation of an exposed fastener panel. Different installation procedures.
