Providing both appealing aesthetics and unparalleled durability, metal has long served as the preferred roofing and siding material for architects and commercial property owners. The combination of affordability, performance, and versatility makes metal panels an ideal choice for any commercial project.
Metal roofing offers an attractive alternative to other commonly used materials. While other options may have lower upfront costs, they often have much shorter life expectancy and require frequent maintenance. Asphalt shingles, for instance, are vulnerable to shrinking, eroding, and cracking, especially in regions of the country where they’re exposed to extreme weather conditions.
Capable of lasting 60 or more years with minimal maintenance or repairs, metal roofing can withstand wind gusts of up to 140 miles per hour and will not corrode or crack due to seasonal weather. A metal roof also provides both fire resistance and energy efficiency, reducing cooling costs by 10-25%.
Standing seam roof systems consist of a series of panels that are connected by raised seams (or vertical legs) above the flat surface. Rather than sitting flush against the roof deck, the seams rise between 1 to 3 inches above the surface and allow the panels to snap together or mechanically interlock without exposed, or visible, fasteners. In addition to providing a sleek, modern look, standing seam systems allow panels to expand and contract with changing temperatures, helping them to last longer and cause less wear and tear on the roof deck.
Concealed fastener wall panels are installed with clips and/or fasteners that are placed beneath the wall panels, so they are hidden from view.
While standing seam roofing systems have been used for generations, 138T and 238T panels feature technological advances in roofing that set a new standard for standing seam performance. 138T and 238T systems are classified as symmetrical standing seam systems and offer many advantages including patented recover solutions featuring the industry's best method to recover existing metal or shingle roofs. 138T and 238T panels are mechanically seamed along with the seam caps.
Combining aesthetics and strength in one panel, McElroy Metal offers MSR, a concealed fastener wall panel. MSR's bold profile adds curb appeal to most any project while providing engineering and
If specifications call for a textured wall design without visible fasteners, the Wave Panels offer an excellent solution.
Wave Floating is installed horizontally utilizing hidden clips and fasteners for panel lengths greater than 40', resulting in a monolithic and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

For commercial property owners confronted with aging or deteriorating roofs, a complete tear-off and replacement may not be an economical or viable long-term solution. This is especially true for roofs with 1/4:12 slope or greater with conventional membranes that require ongoing maintenance due to moisture damage and UV degradation. Owners of 30-40 year old pre-engineered buildings also benefit greatly from a new roof that installs directly over existing metal panels. Fortunately, recover and retrofit systems like metal-over-metal or metal-over-shingles can provide the benefits of a standing seam metal roof without the hassle of replacing the roof entirely. Our systems can be adapted to the existing roof’s structural support system to provide long-term life expectancy and reduced life-cycle costs while also enhancing the property’s curb appeal.
McElroy Metal’s 138T Shingle Recover System provides a long-term and economical solution for commercial building owners and homeowners. This innovative system installs directly over existing shingles and the patented clips create an energy saving Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV) airspace between the existing roof and new 138T roof.
McElroy Metal has a patented 238T frameless Metal-Over-Metal recover option that provides a low cost recover solution over existing exposed fastened panels. This system utilizes McElroy's easily repairable symmetrical 238T standing seam panel while providing a long-term solution to existing metal roofs that have completed their service life at a cost that is competitive with single-ply recover and will last two (2) to four (4) times longer.
By design, flat roofs with conventional membranes have a host of problematic conditions. For example, their inability to shed rainwater promotes premature failure of the weathering membrane and its substrate.
Whether used as a design accent or for an entire roof, curved radius roofing systems are an attractive choice for many commercial projects. Often fabricated on the job site, curved roofing is a standing seam system that provides an ideal solution for curved roofs, arched canopies, and walkway covers. Since the panels are curved on the jobsite, they have a lower landed transportation cost and provide a better opportunity for an exact fit.
McElroy's Maxima 1.5 and Maxima ADV panels are curved on the jobsite by a McElroy Metal Roll Forming Technician. Contact your McElroy representative for pricing and details.
McElroy's popular 138T and 238T symmetrical standing seam systems are also available curved. Panels are curved on the jobsite by a McElroy Metal Roll Forming Technician. Contact your McElroy representative for pricing and details.

R-Panel is a multi-use wall and roof panel used primarily in pre-engineered metal building applications. An optional Purlin Bearing Leg (PBR) rests on purlins and provides support for fastening the panel lap.
The symmetrical design of McElroy’s Mini-Rib exposed fastener panel make it an appealing profile for soffit, liner and fascia applications.
Multi-V is an exposed fastener wall panel designed so that fasteners are placed in the valleys, making them visually less apparent.
Before installing metal roof and wall panels, it’s recommended to use the same material for a commercial project’s soffit, fascia, and canopy needs. These pre-formed panels are designed for both vertical and horizontal applications and feature a variety of pan conditions. Whether being used for roof eaves, porch ceilings, or canopy installations, metal paneling can provide an elegant finishing touch to any commercial project.
FW Panel is a 1 1/2" deep flush metal panel designed for use in vertical and horizontal applications.
Available 12" panel width options include: vee grooves, inverted plank, reveals of up to 3", or a traditional smooth appearance. Regardless of the pattern, the 1 1/2" depth and the tongue-and-groove engagement remain the same.
