THE REAL COST OF UNCOORDINATED SPECS

SPECIFIED AS ONE THING.
BUILT AS ANOTHER.

1.

DESIGN DISCONTINUITY

Parts sourced piecemeal break the line. Profiles clash, proportions drift, and finishes never quite agree.

2.

SUBSTITUTION DRIFT

An unspecified lighter product gets treated as equivalent, because nothing in the spec says it is not.

3.

REDRAWS AND REMEASUREMENTS

When a fitting does not exist, the condition comes back to you, and you solve the same detail twice.

4.

REPUTATION RISK

Sagging runs, mismatched seams, and premature staining read as a design failure, not a supply one.

THE BLACKCREST SYSTEM

COORDINATED COMPONENTS. DESIGNED AS ONE.

COORDINATED COMPONENTS.
DESIGNED AS ONE.

One manufacturer, one profile language, one finish family. The gutter, the outlet, the elbow, the bracket, the collector box, and the end cap are drawn to meet each other, which means the roof edge can be detailed rather than improvised.

Profile and sizes

Half-round profile in 5 inch and 6 inch, in 13-foot lengths, in 18-ounce copper or 24-gauge galvanized steel

Downspouts

Matching components

Finishes

Placement

QUESTIONS ARCHITECTS ASK US

BEFORE IT GOES
IN THE SET.

How do I write this so a lighter product cannot be substituted?

Call out the weight, not just the material. Our copper gutters are 18-ounce copper. Specify half-round, the size, 18-ounce copper or 24-gauge galvanized steel, and the matching component family by name, and a thinner sheet stops reading as an equal. Ask us and we will send you the language.

Can you look at a detail before it is drawn?

What do the finishes actually do over time?

SPECIFICATION SUPPORT

Component drawings, finish references, and someone on the phone who knows what is stocked. Ask for the spec package.

DETAIL THE EDGE.
NOT THE WORKAROUND.

One coordinated system, one source, and one conversation before it is drawn.
