ATAS Field-Lok Low Slope User Manual
Installation Guide
Review and understand complete
guide before beginning installation.
This guide has been prepared as suggested details to
particular design conditions. Each condition has certain
limitations to performance, aethetics or economics.
Professionals qualified to assess this information for a
specific project, should determine that the selection and
installation are made to their requirements. ATAS cannot
assume any responsibility for the actual selection and/or
installation of materials. The panels, flashings and trim
shown in this guide are illustrated over solid and plumb
substrate. It is assumed that the structure has been
designed and prepared in accordance with local building
codes.
NOTE : This guide to be used for installations with
a roof slope of 2:12 or less only on a solid substrate. Consult factory for all other installations.

seamed panel. Installed with concealed clips and fasteners
and a mechanical seamer in a tri-fold lock-in application.
Panels are available in smooth or embossed texture in 29
standard ATAS colors are available with premium KYNAR

Low Slope
Field-Lok Seam Panel Anchoring
Note: The appropriate fasteners
must be sufficiently
long enough to
penetrate through
a solid substrate.
Step #1 - Locate the anchor
clip over the right (male) leg of
the previously laid panel to
afford the proper clip spacing note how the base centering
stops positions and holds the
movable section of the clip.
DO NOT fully set the screw(s)
until all have been located
along this seam line.
Step #2 - Fully set the screw(s)
and note how this action now
releases the movable section of
the clip and allows for roof
movement (expansion /
contraction).
Step #3 - Hook the entire left
(female) leg of the next panel
over the right (male) leg of
the previously installed panel
making sure to fully engage
the factory installed sealant
(optional).
Step #4 - Roll seam the joint
utilizing the joint seamer.

shim as shown.
2. At gable start detail, install gable trim starter cleat
with appropriate fasteners at 2’-0” into fascia board.
3. At end gable, cut panel to appropriate width to
allow room for clips at gable end. If panel cut off is
3” or wider install cut off portion of panel underneath
last panel w/ butyl tape applied in between the two
panels and install clips before installing gable assembly.
