Metal Sub-girts are continuous framing structures typically made with 16- to 22-gauge galvanized steel extensively used for the mounting system in roofing and cladding projects.

These are basically the components that are used to strap sidings to the exterior wooden/brick/dense (concrete, etc.) walls and though they are not visible after the siding project is completed, they are quite fundamental to the stability and durability of the siding.

Metal Sub-girts come in different shapes, lengths, and thicknesses depending on their applications; the substrates they are installed on; and the construction design. Sub-girts are installed horizontally or vertically; depending on the ease of installation requested, they can be pre-punched to reduce installation time.

Profelez can produce any type of sub-girt based on construction requirements. However, we can also provide recommendations based on our extensive experience of installing almost all types of sidings and working with all kinds of building materials.

The most popular types of metal sub-girts are Z bars, L bars, Hat Channels, C Channels, and Angels.
