EZ Glaze Beehive roofing sheets
EZ Glaze Beehive roofing sheets are very strong pre-formed polycarbonate sheets with a prismatic surface finish. These sheets are exceptionally strong with unrivalled resistance to weather and hail.
With built in UV protection, the textured surface of the sheet allows high levels of light transmission while it helps to give a diffused visual effect that offers privacy and reduced glare.
Designed to fit over rafters at 600mm centres the pre-formed polycarbonate panels have corrugations at their sides for easy interlocking when fitting. The sheets fit directly over rafters, without the need for supporting purlins.
The system does not need glazing bars and a minimum of trims and fixings are required to complete your EZ glaze Beehive roof. The roof system is perfect for patio canopies and verandas, pergolas, gazebos and carports. EZ Glaze sheets are also available in a number of smooth finish tints.

How to fit an EZ Glaze Beehive roof
The following gives a brief overview of installation but before starting your project please have a look at the full downloadable EZ Glaze fitting instructions.
- The roof needs to have a minimum pitch of 5 degree - this is 87.5mm of fall over each metre of projection.
- Your rafters need to be set at centres of 600mm and be 50mm – 60mm in width.
- They must be perfectly perpendicular to beams/wall.
1. Attach the foam tape centrally to the top of each rafter to reduce vibration and noise
3. Predrill 10mm expansion holes and fasten to the rafter with EZ Glaze timber fixing screws and washers at max 500mm centres down the top of the corrugation. Start at the bottom and work your way up.
4. To fit the second EZ Glaze panel, the preformed EZ Glaze panels simply overlap at their edges. Predrill through both layers on the second rafter and fix as above. Now remove the top protective film from the first panel. Continue in this way across your roof to the end.
5. If using the EZ Glaze Wall Flashing this is pre-formed to the same corrugations as the sheets for ease of fitting and a neat water resistant finish. Please see the full fitting instructions for the wall flashing.
6. Now remove the protective film from the underside of the sheets.
