Shedlock
Shedlock - also known as fish - is a stainless steel ventilation hood that mounts close to the ridge for ventilation of roof spaces and pitched roof structures.
Efficient roof ventilation with stainless steel cowl
In both modern and older roof constructions, ventilation of roof spaces and roof surfaces is an important factor in maintaining a healthy indoor climate, preventing condensation, and extending the lifespan of the roof. One of the most discreet and effective solutions for this purpose is Shedlock, also known in the construction industry as clip fish or simply fish.
Shedlock (fish) from JUAL is a specially developed ventilation cowl in stainless steel, installed close to the ridge on pitched roofs. It is designed to ensure constant and natural air circulation in the roof space – without compromising the roof’s tightness, functionality, or aesthetics.
Purpose and function
Construction and materials
JUAL’s Shedlock (fish) is manufactured in stainless steel, making it highly resistant to corrosion, UV radiation, and extreme weather conditions. The robust construction ensures a long lifespan and minimal maintenance – even under harsh climatic conditions.
The compact and streamlined design means the cowl integrates easily into the roof architecture without appearing intrusive. It is placed discreetly close to the ridge and presents a visually consistent appearance with other roof components.
Applications
Shedlock is ideal for:
-
Tiled roofs and pitched roofs
-
Detached houses, terraced houses, industrial and commercial buildings
-
Roof spaces and knee wall spaces requiring natural ventilation
-
Renovation projects where effective ventilation is needed without major intervention
-
Ventilated roof constructions with vapour barrier and insulation
