Home » Edge Systems One: A Five Mile Fascia Facelift
In the summer of 2012, America’s Central Port, owned by the Tri-City Regional Port District and located just north of downtown St. Louis, was repairing multiple roofs throughout their 1,200-acre facility. Hail damage caused by a large storm earlier that year prompted the extensive repair project.
With most low-slope commercial roofing projects eventually comes the important decision of finding the right perimeter edge metal solution — a key component in maintaining the safety of the building envelope. Tom Worley, senior consultant at RMT Roofing and Waterproofing of Manchester, Mo., along with RMT owners Ryan and Kevin O’Connell, were enlisted to provide the re-roof design. Because of his extensive project management experience, Worley took the lead for the America’s Central Port project. He was responsible for ensuring that all quality standards were met, so he specified Metal-Era’s Edge Systems One fascia system as the fast, reliable and affordable roof edge solution. It was suggested that using a pre-manufactured edge metal would simplify the installation process, cutting down the time-consuming steps involved with installing shop fabricated metals and creating overall project savings.
