A recent purchase was a portable site folder TBS 100. This has been a game-changer for the team. Initially brought for a large standing seam job to fold ends of sheets, we now find the team using it on-site weekly. On a recent project – the roof had 15 square roof ducts to come through the roof. Most of the flashings were under 1200mm. We craned up the flat sheets, installed the roof, and then went straight on to install the flashings for the roof penetrations. Eliminating the lead time on custom-made flashings manufactured in a warehouse, and installing the flashings straight after the roof meant no more water got into the build and sped the whole process up.

We invested over the years into the machines and would never look back, before the TBS we would use hand rollers and tools, this still works with care but if you want to speed up your prep work and have crisp lines then I recommend any of the TBS site folders. These are just handy having on-site to fold up chimney crickets or that more detailed flashing system. Having the correct tools and machines gives you confidence going into any tray project knowing your company can deliver the finish which is expected when installing bespoke high-profile projects.
