Image 1: Skyline Coping’s innovative ‘hidden’ fixing strap with EPDM rubber seal

The Skyline aluminium coping system has a hidden strap fixing method which avoids penetration of the capping, whilst allowing ventilation over the top of the wall.

  • Equally suited to retrofit and new build
  • No fixings pass through the coping, resulting in a weatherproof covering
  • Fabricated fittings are mitred, welded beautifully for a smooth finish on the front face
  • The fixing strap comes with an integral EPDM rubber seal and is hidden, so clean lines are maintained on the surface
  • Typically fixing can be carried out from the roof so no external access is required.

Why choose Aluminium?

  • UK manufactured. All processes controlled under ISO9001 & ISO14001 Quality and Environmental Management Systems.

  • Easy to handle and fix
  • Life expectancy of 40 years in rural/suburban areas and up to 25 years in industrial/marine areas

The Wall Size vs the Coping Size

Each coping size is designed to suit a range of wall sizes, allowing an overlap of the capping on either side of the wall. This overlap can be distributed evenly or with more overlap on the inside of the parapet (not the outside as this may cause wind-uplift). See more about this distribution of the overlap in the installation guide.
