What happens here

To install the Roof Boot, locate a suitable position on the roof. Drill three heavy-duty screws through the designated holes on the Roof Boot and into the roof structure.

  • Drill — Driving screws into the roof
  • Roof Boot Provision Tools — The primary tool for securing ladders
  • Screws — Securing the Roof Boot to the roof
