Snow Retention Systems
A snow retention system, also called snow guards, is crucial for a metal roof because the smooth surface of metal can cause large amounts of snow to slide off suddenly, creating a potential avalanche that can damage property, injure people below, and even harm the roof itself; a snow retention system helps control the snow melt by holding the snow in place and allowing it to gradually slide off in smaller portions, preventing these hazards

Protects gutters, landscaping, vehicles, and building walls from damage caused by falling snow.
Liability concerns:
Liability concerns:A properly installed snow retention system can help mitigate legal responsibility if snow from your roof causes damage.
