Material
Your coil or ours.
Every job starts with one question: who’s buying the metal? Either answer works.
We supply the coil
Need the metal too? We stock 24 gauge painted coil in PVDF and SMP — every color on our chart — and form the panels on your job.
Matching trim, same coil
Panels and trim from the same coil run so the color lines up. Draw your trim to the inch in the Panel & Trim Calculator.
Why on site
No endlaps. No long-panel freight.
When the runs are too long to truck, the roll former comes to the roof instead.
Continuous lengths
Panels run one piece from eave to ridge, so there are no endlaps to leak later.
Exact lengths
Every panel is cut to the run measured on the roof, not to a number written down weeks ago.
Straight to the roof
Nothing to ship, stage or bend on a trailer. On a telehandler, the machine feeds panels right onto the deck.

Profiles we roll form on site.
Our New Tech Machinery SSQ II roll formers carry these profile sets, and we form McElroy’s Trap-Tee on site too. Every seam below is drawn to the same scale.
- Mechanically seamedClosed on the roof with a seamer. The pick for lower slopes and higher wind ratings.
- Snap-lockLegs press together by hand, so panels go down fast with no seaming pass.
- Fastener flangeScrews through a slotted flange straight to the deck, with no clips.

Symmetrical panel with a sealed T-cap. Any single panel can be pulled and replaced later.
Minimum slope matters. Snap-lock and mechanically seamed panels are not interchangeable. Call the desk with your slope before you order, or read seam type and slope in the field guide. Need a profile that isn’t listed? Ask.
Hot pot
Hot-melt sealant in the seam.
Our hot pot melts butyl mastic and injects a continuous bead into the female leg as each panel comes off the roll former. The seam is sealed eave to ridge before the panel reaches the roof, with the same bead size and placement on every panel.
Thermally applied in-seam sealant is what manufacturers call for on many low-slope and extended weathertight warranty jobs, and it keeps the sealant inside the assembly, protected from sun and standing water. Butyl stays flexible, so the seam keeps its seal as panels expand and contract.
Warranty jobs
Tell us which warranty you’re after and we’ll confirm the sealant spec with the manufacturer before we run.

FAQ
On-site roll forming questions.
Straight answers to what contractors ask the desk most.
What is on-site roll forming?
On-site roll forming means the roll former comes to your job. Standing seam panels are formed from coil right at the building and cut to the exact length of each run.
Panels can go on in one continuous piece from eave to ridge, so there are no endlaps and no long panels to ship.
Can you roll form coil I already bought?
Yes. We roll form customer-supplied coil, including coil bought from Elevate or another supplier. If you need the metal too, we supply 24 gauge painted coil in PVDF and SMP and can fabricate matching trim.
Which standing seam profiles can you roll form on site?
On our New Tech Machinery SSQ II roll formers we run SS100 (1" mechanically seamed), SS150 (1.5" mechanically seamed), SSQ200 (2" mechanically seamed), SS450 (1.5" snap-lock), SSQ675 (1.75" snap-lock), FF100 (1" fastener flange) and FWQ100 (1" flush wall and soffit, with optional perforation). We also form McElroy Trap-Tee on site.
Should I use snap-lock or mechanically seamed panels?
Mechanically seamed panels are closed on the roof with a seamer and are the usual choice for lower slopes and higher wind ratings. Snap-lock panels press together by hand and install faster.
The right pick depends on roof slope, wind requirements and the warranty you need. Tell us those and we’ll recommend a profile.
Do you roll form panels for Elevate NDL warranty jobs?
Yes. We roll form for Elevate and make panels that can be used with Elevate’s NDL (no dollar limit) warranties. Send the Elevate spec with your quote request and we’ll line up the profile, gauge and seam sealant with your Elevate rep before the job.
What is a hot pot on a roll former?
A hot pot is a heated sealant applicator on the roll former. Ours melts butyl mastic and injects a continuous bead into the female leg of each panel as it is formed, so the seam is sealed eave to ridge before the panel reaches the roof.
Thermally applied in-seam sealant is commonly called for on low-slope and extended weathertight warranty jobs.
What areas do you serve for on-site roll forming?
Our home base is Sherman, Texas, and we roll form on site across Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) and all of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana, including Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Waco, Tyler, Wichita Falls, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Broken Bow and Hochatown, Little Rock, Fort Smith, Shreveport, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. For jobs outside those states, call for a quote.
