Frequently Asked Questions
How is keder roof sheeting installed?
Keder roof sheeting is inserted into aluminum keder tracks that connect onto the roof system beams. The beaded edges slide securely into the track, creating a tight, weather-resistant seal.
What are the benefits of using keder sheeting instead of standard one-piece tarps?
Keder sheeting offers several advantages over traditional one piece tarps. Sold in manageable widths of 7′ and 10′, the sheets are much lighter, making them easier to handle and install by hand or with the assistance of a standard winch, eliminating the need for heavy machinery. This modular design also improves cost efficiency, as if a section is damaged with rips or holes, only that single sheet needs to be replaced rather than the entire tarp. In contrast, one piece tarps are cumbersome, expensive to replace, and often require significant equipment to install, adding unnecessary time and cost to a project.
Can keder sheets be reused?
Yes. North Scaffold supplies reusable keder sheets that can be used across multiple projects with proper care, inspection, and storage.
Are keder sheets waterproof?
Absolutely. Our keder sheeting is fully waterproof and designed to withstand rain, snow, and wind, making it ideal for long-term temporary roof protection.
What kind of temporary roof systems use keder sheets?
Keder sheets are used with modular aluminum roof systems, typically mounted on Ringlock scaffolding. They’re ideal for static, rolling, or cantilevered temporary roofs.
Can I use keder sheets on vertical or sidewall enclosures?
Yes. Keder sheeting can be used for sidewalls, wind barriers, and dust control enclosures when opting for a “portal frame” structure, where keder tracks can be run to the ground on the vertical beams.
