Reliable protection with high-quality snow guards
A sudden roof avalanche can cause severe damage to property and pose a significant risk to pedestrians. By installing a sturdy snow guard, you effectively prevent heavy snow and ice from sliding off your pitched roof. These essential safety systems keep the snow load securely in place until it melts safely.
Whether you are upgrading an existing roof or planning a new build, our selection offers the right components to ensure maximum safety during the winter months. Protect your driveways, walkways, and lower roof sections with professional-grade solutions.
Our snow guard range: Grids, supports, and complete sets
In our assortment, you will find everything required for a secure snow retention system. We offer individual snow guard grids in lengths of 120 cm and 200 cm, manufactured by the trusted brand DAPRONA. To match your roof tiles perfectly, the components are available in classic colours such as silver, black, and brick red.
Beyond the grids themselves, we supply matching snow guard supports specifically designed for common roof tiles like the Frankfurter Pfanne. For a seamless installation, you can also choose our practical connectors or opt for comprehensive sets that include the grid, supports, and connectors in one convenient package.
Choosing the right snow guard system for your roof
When selecting your snow guard, consider the length of your roof edge and the specific type of roof tiles you have. The supports must fit the tile profile securely to distribute the weight of the snow evenly across the roof structure. Using our complete sets ensures that all components are perfectly compatible, saving you time and effort during assembly.
Depending on the required length and whether you need individual parts or full sets, prices range from approximately 7.99 GBP to 99.99 GBP (As of 2026). This allows you to tailor the system exactly to your structural requirements and budget.
Frequently Asked Questions about snow guards
Do I legally need to install a snow guard on my roof?
The legal requirements depend on your local building regulations and the location of your property. If your roof borders public walkways, streets, or entrances, you are generally responsible for preventing snow from falling and causing injury or damage.
How many supports do I need for a snow guard grid?
The number of supports depends on the local snow load zone and the roof pitch. As a general rule, you should install a support at least every 60 to 80 cm to ensure the grid can withstand the pressure of heavy, wet snow.
Can I install a snow guard on an existing roof?
Yes, retrofitting is entirely possible and common. The supports are designed to be hooked or screwed onto the existing roof battens, requiring you to temporarily lift only a few roof tiles during the installation process.
Which colour should I choose for my snow retention system?
For the most unobtrusive appearance, it is recommended to match the colour of the grid and supports to your roof tiles. Our DAPRONA products are available in silver, black, and brick red to blend seamlessly with standard roofing materials.
How do I connect multiple snow guard grids together?
To create a continuous barrier along the entire width of your roof, you use specific metal connectors. These simply slide over the ends of two adjoining grids and clamp them firmly together for maximum stability.
Summary: Invest in winter safety
Equipping your roof with a professional snow guard system is a crucial step in preventing dangerous snow slides and protecting your property. With our durable components and complete sets, you are well-prepared for the cold season.
