Esdec ClickFit Evo Portrait Mounting Profile for Metal Roof
The Esdec ClickFit Evo Mounting Profile (Portrait) delivers a dedicated solar mounting solution for vertically oriented solar panels on metal roofs. It forms a direct, secure connection between the roof fixings, such as hanger bolts or adapter brackets, and the panel frames, ensuring consistent load transfer and long-term reliability.
Supplied and supported by Evergy, this ClickFit Evo profile is part of the same installer-favourite range used across hundreds of UK projects. Our renewables team, led by Head of Renewables Les Danter, work directly with Esdec to verify that every mounting component meets UK structural and compliance standards, including G98/G99 and EN 1090-1 certification.
Purpose-Built for Portrait Orientation
Unlike the landscape version, this profile is designed to run parallel to roof fixings, supporting the shorter sides of portrait-mounted panels. The integrated channel accepts standard Esdec module clamps, locking each panel quickly into place while maintaining uniform spacing and alignment.
- Ensures precise, stable portrait panel positioning on metal roofs.
- Compatible with trapezoidal, standing-seam and corrugated surfaces.
- Reduces part count for faster, tidier installations.
Faster, Safer Installation
The ClickFit Evo design philosophy centres on efficiency. Profiles and clamps interlock through Esdec’s proven click-connection system, allowing panels to be mounted swiftly once the fixings are secured. The result: reduced time at height, consistent mechanical strength, and a professional finish that meets manufacturer warranty requirements.
Engineered Strength & Longevity
Fabricated from high-grade aluminium, the profile combines low weight with exceptional rigidity and corrosion resistance. Each section is factory-tested to perform under the demanding wind and snow loads found across the UK. When installed within the full ClickFit Evo system, it is backed by Esdec’s 20-year warranty, providing assurance of quality and durability.
