How to Install Standing Seam Hip Cap

- How to install standing seam hip cap. This hip cap trim is the final detail I need to install on the Oregon Music Garage project before we head in to start the interior buildout. Most standing seam trim details are no difficult, but do contain more steps and thought than standard exposed metal roof trim details.

It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.
What draws me to your channel is your professionalism and your perfection to detail. and all the best from turkey........
thank you very much
Great video, pro tip: you don't need the tape or open hem, just slide the lower piece down a bit, install upper, slide lower up into place and rivit, I've done hundreds of these.
Yep. I haven't actually done this yet, but my thought while watching the video was to slide the top one in first all the way from the bottom, and then do the bottom piece.
It's reassuring to see other people struggle. I always get discouraged when I'm struggling and it's nice to learn
it's normal
That made perfect sense!!! I am not a roofer....spent 6 years in commercial construction......I understood everything you presented! :) Well done!
Thank you for taking the time to educate both builders and diyers. This episode reminded me about watching a metal roof being installed on a home in Colorado. Anytime the installers encountered a metal-on-metal situation they applied a small amount of silicone. One of the installers noticed me watching and asked if I had any questions, so I asked about the silicone. He explained that one of the most common concerns was the amount of noise experienced in high wind areas. The silicone was being used to reduce the sound of metal-on-metal moving around. Thought that was a great idea.
I’ve owned a roofing company for over two years, and have done hundreds of shingle roofs. Standing seam is not very popular here outside of new construction, so as much as I’d love to, I’ve never been able to do one. So jealous. What a beautiful system. Thanks so much for another great video!
Your ability to pass on your skill and experience is awesome!
Handsome detail indeed. Your OCD pays off and that attention to detail is totally obvious in how straight and smooth the hip cap appears when the light hits those flat surfaces and the overlap.
This looked like a so-so detail video, turned out to be very interesting. Kyle is very good at teaching and his attention to detail is excellent.
Featuring 'It Pays to be Picky' Kyle! Very impressive outcome.
Hey Kyle, if I were a millionaire I would pay ya guys to come down to Florida and build me a man cave!! You guys again are the Beatles of construction and I always look forward to your videos. Best of luck in all ya guys do!!
Deal!
Great looking result! Seems to me like it would be easier to install to top piece first, then slide the lower piece into the top piece. The only thing is you wouldn't be able to rivet the lower piece at the top. Just my thoughts. God bless and stay well. Imagine snow in May! Illinois must be a pretty cold climate.
Thank you so much for all of the information you share. We are getting ready to build our "forever home" out of unconventional "the perfect block" and we want to use this system for a maintenance free home. I learn something from you every time I watch. I just hope I can find as fine a craftsman down in Arkansas when we build and top our home with a standing seam roof!
I Like to see you build a Building from start to finish.I know you done alot of them.And I watched all them.I learn alot from what you do.It will never get old.You Guys are great.
Kyle, your results, as always, speak for themselves. Your ability to demonstrate and deliver a clear monologue is awesome. I often wonder how much of your repertoire was learned from someone and how much was self taught- you have surely passed a great deal of it to Gregg as well as to the hicks on my side of the screen! FR
You are correct this is VERY labor intensive!
Great video! There is a ton of work here but I'm sure that the attention to detail and strength really pays off in a severe storm.
thats a lifetime roof so a little bit of extra detail is worth it
@@RRBuildings Makes sense as someone who has replaced a couple of shingled roofs; one after just 7-years (manufacturer's defect with the shingles we installed)
Love be watching the detail trim work with all the intricacies of cuts and angles. Great detail! Thanks for your time Kyle.
On that last piece, could you of installed it first using the same sort of method, then slid the lower piece up and under the top piece? Just curious if that would make it easier to work.. Nice job by the way, that roof, just like any of your other work looks top notch.
I second that! Could you have slid the top piece on FIRST, then leave the bottom piece a little long to allow trimming to a point, to make it easier to slide under the top piece! Love all your videos Kyle! You're a Master Craftsman!
My thoughts exactly
The Only Issue I see with this idea is, where do you put in the rivet?
Always wondered how to do this. Tight and leak proof and looks perfect. Be safe and stay warm. Will be ordering Cabin in the Woods drawings in late June and giving them to engineer and architect to get started. Will be a long process and probably not ready till Dexember or January due to making them hurricane compliment.
Best of luck man that’s awesome
Is it possible to put the rear piece on first, then slide the front one into it? But then I guess there would not be a way to do the rivet.
I am an installer in SoCal
I usually hem and then bend down the cap at the very front
I bend it down to meet the panel
IMO it looks better then just hemming and locking on the Z closure
Great job!! in my line of work I would’ve put that top ridge cap underneath the wall flashing instead of on top of it.
You should make that hip cap in one piece... Nice and clean run
Love your work
I always enjoy learning on your chanel
thank you
I love seeing that Metabo triple hammer in action. My favourite impact for sure!!
I feel like the new version is better (I like the leds, reduced bit runout and few other things), but they refuse to sell it outside of Japan for some reason. I asked and they said "keep waiting" lol
do not know if you have thought of this, but, a couple layers of blue tape on your bender might just help wit scratch prevention.
One pro to another , It’s easier to put that top pc in first and then push the lower one in and use some sealant on the lap , then you can move your cap left or right to get the bend line perfect , then put a pop on both sides to lock her in ! 👌
Curious if you couldn't slide the top piece on first, still opening the bottom 6" of the hem a bit, and then slide the bottom in and tuck it into the overlap? I've never worked with this so its just a thought. Great content as usual.
Wanted to say the same thing....but having never done a standing seam roof, but I can't see why it wouldn't work.
Kyle love your channel and your attention to detail
Hip Hip Horray! Put a Cap on it. Well done.
Thank you Sir))) Got right information! Always good to learn something new)))
Kyle I have a friend the does standing seam. He uses a vinyl siding removable tool to get the last piece of cap on the z channel.
That’s is a good idea
I would forget the rivet.
Slide the bottom piece on last and up into the top piece.
Then sqeeze the hem where they join and by the gutter.
With a tight fit like that it’s not going anywhere.
It looks amazing and you do a great job (piece og art).
Great job, Kyle! You have a fantastic channel. You and Greg do a yeoman's style of work each and every time I wattch. I love watching the content! Keep it up.
Awesome! Thank you!
Bedankt voor de info 🤩👍👌✊ Groetjes uit Holland 🥰👋🏼👋🏼🌹🌹
Thanks buddy, we really appreciate you 🙏
Ну, это четко. Без саморезов там всяких)))))
Usually we run the “Z-bar” on the hip first and cut the panels to fit in the z- channel as we go, then when is comes time to cap. At the top of the cap where the hip dives into the wall corner I’d tuck the hip cap into the wall flashing or z-bar not over it that way you’re not relying on sealant for waterproofing. Another way of finishing the bottom of the hip cap would be to do a hem then an 1 and 1/4 bend at a 90 instead of hooking it into z bar but I kinda like the way you did it anyway it more simple but still I couldn’t see how it looked up close. If there’s any joints on the cap I’d use lexel once it drys it’s better than a screw
ur a ninja with the snips bro..! like, that is some tricky sh*t..!
Well done Kyle! Thank you for this very informative video. 👍😁
Could you use a vinyl siding removal tool to help open those seams on the top piece? Not sure if that would help or Maine make more scratches. Nice details! Would hate to ruin them by causing scratches.
You do great work I am a builder and love the channel
Buenas noches!!! Soy jose de argentina... La verdad que haces unos trabajos excelentes, yo trabajo con la madera... Y todo el contenido que subis esta extraordinario!!!! Te felicito!!! Muy buen trabajo!!!
very well explained with details
Amazing videos. Thanks, you maybe you can answer this question I'm installing one roof, black smud tin metal, 26 gage, and is showing multiple vends ones we snap it
Kyle, do you have any videos that show how to tackle a ridge cap to hip cap detail? I’m trying to figure out how you would cut/fold for aesthetics and functionality.
Tight work...Well Done!
Kyle, thanks for another very thorough tutorial. When attempting this on my house with black roof panels, I can see the bright strip of butyl tape going all the way up the hip and it's pretty unsightly. Are you able to squish it down enough that it's not visible from the ground?
Masterpiece.
Excellent 👍🏼
Are there no special tool you can use or maybe design one to use for that last finsl step? Greetings from a fan in the Philippines. Stay safe.
Excellent work, keep it up!!!
It's all in the details.
Hey Kyle. Have you ever tried the ridge caps that already have the insertion within it? I have used once and very liked it. Found it a lot faster. Great work as always. Thanks for the tips.
Excellent!! Greetings from Argentina 👍🏼
Really liking your trim work videos. Hope to see more. Thank you for all your content!!!
Getting ready to do this on my porch and this helps a lot. THANKS!
Another super job explained very well with a lot knowledge cheers Kyle
For the top hip install you dont need to slide hook one hem use your knee to push the cap while you pull the z bar until it snaps on 45 on side of the first hip knotch and it will hook right on👍
Fantastic job!!!!!
Great video, related but un related, is the siding installed after or before the metal roof? Just wondering how you get the flashing up behind the siding.
BOOTS TRY REDWING 608 I’ve been building post frames for over 20 years best all around wool boot and boot sole to walk metal I’ve found
Great work man, your channel is so cool. Thank you for the content, keep it up!
Can you provide a link to the self tapping screws you used for the Z trim please? Awesome channel. You are one of the most detail oriented craftsman I have ever seen, and it shows in every finished project.
Great work!!
Great Job
Kyle, what pants are you rocking? Liked the look of those…
Truewerk
Thanks Kyle. BTW, your videos are great. Just installed my first standing seam on a pavilion and your tips were invaluable.
These roofs are alot more simply done than in europe
Awesome work bro!!! Man I’d love to do a building with you! I know we’d work well together 💪🏻🔨
Great job Kyle!
you still have snow?? I'm in North Carolina and it's 88 degrees today. Sunday May 23, 2021
I had to laugh when you belittled your skill level with metal. I've seen a lot of 'em and none better. You have great patience and that's what it takes to make clean lines.
Nice job
Kyle, do you have a shoe/boot recommendation? I’m fighting to maintain grip on a 7/12 aluminum roof… slowing me down a lot.
I have a 175+ feet of hips to do on my raised seem metal roof. Each hip (4) 2 of which are 50+feet each. Any pointers for that?
Super job , Kyle!
Amazing content! Keep it up my dude
Thanks bro
Wonder if a vinyl siding tool would work on pulling the open hem over the fasteners?
Great work 👍🏼 ... would it have worked out if you slid the top trim up first ?
Gracias buenos videos
Es lo que estaba buscando 👍
Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will it still be ok if the panels where cut uneven and have a big gap in between them?
NICE.
Great
Hey man, this doesn’t really pertain to this video but I’ve been watching a lot of your content and its awesome. Do you guys sell merch? If so post a link I’d love to check it out. Thanks!

thanks man
Great Kyle,💯💯💯👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️
What was the name of those shoes. Wow! Great job.
When it comes to metal roofing, the metal itself should be your main guard against the elements. I see the butyl for what it worth, but as it was said the video, guys tend to get bogged down in the details...so IMO leaning on products like butyl tape caulking should not be a primaRY source of water mitigation, but instead using the metal roofing material as the primary and tape caulking as secondary...nice clean work though buddy, looks good
Love the content!! Quick question - how would I go about installing the hip cap and z flashing for my roof which is a polycarbonate plastic sheet?
Hey mate!! :) Great vids.. question, the hip cap would normally go under that top horizontal flashing, would it not be easier to run it under? would be a better finish to I think?
Kyle, how did you learn to cut all of these angles. Meaning, when you first started how did you configure your angles? Book reference?
Excellent
Also, is the gutter system part of the standing seam roof? Or is it coincidence that it is the same color?
👍 Video 👍
What is your opinion on how this roof would stand up to tornado level winds?
Would it be possible just to slide the bottom piece under the top piece?
perfect angle for my curves, way to go !!!
Great video! Are you planning on doing a video on the isotune aware headphones?
A full video? Not sure. They are def cool
@@RRBuildings can you hear conversations over music if have it playing? That's the one concern I have.
Yes
Hey Kyle, why do you put two pieces and not just one?
Probably ran out of material or longer than the size that they’re cut
