FLAT ROOF, EAST/WEST

– roof consoles for all types of roof

FLAT ROOF, EAST/WEST

For the vast majority of projects, FIXNORDIC recommends its East/West console system for the following reasons:

  • Ideal utilisation of the roof surface that allow space for additional panel
  • Production all day long from sun rise to sunset.
  • Self-cleaning modules for 10° inclines
  • Attachment directly into the roof's structural framework without using ballast


Effectively sealing a hole in the roof can be extremely difficult. If not done properly, rainwater and snow can seep into the building and damage its internal structures. Our hole-sealing system ensures that the perforations remained sealed throughout the roof’s service life.
– Kasper Kåre Andersen, Fixnordic

Technical data

The East/West solution’s design is based on the FIXNORDIC console system and has a remarkably high pull capacity, thanks to being attached directly into the roof’s structure. This means that the wind factor is no longer critical. The console system’s pull capacity is usually three times greater than required.

FIXNORDIC’s unique roof consoles are patented, and their watertightness has been third-party tested by TÜV Rheinland. In practice, this means that the console system will have the same minimum service life as the roof membrane.

At FIXNORDIC, we deliver not just a reliable console and installation system with thoroughly sealed penetration of the roof membrane, but our technical calculations also ensure that our console systems can withstand the elements because the calculations are based on each individual installation solution. This means that you, as a FIXNORDIC customer, get the best console system on the market, which includes documentation of your specific system.



FIXNORDIC’s console system is based on aerodynamic testing of wind resistance carried out by RC Ruscheweyh Consult GmbH, and on snow loads of the console system and loads on the roof structure at each individual point of attachment. All calculations comply with Eurocode’s basis for wind calculations, EN1991:1-4, and snow calculations, EN1991:1-3.
