Some contractor give good idea too, instead of Zinc, they put BRC on the wood truss.
I was quote using this method when sourcing for contractor during my house rebuild last year.

QUOTE(adrianjc @ Feb 22 2012, 10:02 PM) You can use the chicken coop type wire mesh and place below the roof tiles. It's does not stop ppl from coming in if they really want to but it does work as a pretty good deterrent. That one too thin, the BRC is actually very good idea. But the wood truss need to have enough support. |

QUOTE(Jo_da48 @ Feb 22 2012, 10:31 PM) If you decide go for Zink, nake sure the workmanship is good and the ending should phasing out instead of inside. Else if you have water leak issue than very difficult to trace back. I am using Zinc, so far heat reduction is good, usually by 12 to 1pm, first floor will be hot, but with zinc, you only feel hot around 3+pm.Maybe want to included alumnimun fold to reduce heat too |

QUOTE(blurisland @ Mar 26 2012, 03:13 PM) So what are the best way now? Currently my house almost get break through from the roof and now looking for better security ways. As read above there are ways like installing Zinc or even grill? Another method is put BRC, but roof need additional support. BRC is very heavy for thicck brc.Which is is better and how much does it cost? |

QUOTE(steven789 @ Mar 10 2016, 12:00 PM) I'm thinking of using roof tile adhesives to prevent burglars from removing the roof tiles. Anyone has any experience on this? Will it be effective? You have more problem in future, what happen you need to remove it for maintenance? You taking entire roof down?Furthermore, roof tiles not that hard to break, a hammer is already good to break the roof, how do you intent to strengthen it? |
