Our Classic Shake Mount uses Quick Mount PV's patented technology to form the easiest, fastest, most universally code-compliant watertight mount available for wood shake roof installations. A single pilot hole is all it takes – just drill it, drive it, and you're done!

Designed to be adaptable, Quick Mount PV's 18 x18-inch flashing installs on East Coast style shake roofs (7.5-inch exposure over skip sheeting) and West Coast (10-inch exposure over solid sheeting) alike. The flashing slides quickly into place with no need to modify the shake to force a fit. Just a simple, watertight seal every time.

Quick Mount PV's Classic Shake Mount are constructed of corrosion resistant material, including .050 aluminum flashing and stainless steel hardware, which last at least three times longer than galvanized parts. Our Classic Shake Mounts bolt to any racking system with an L-foot interface, and integrate directly with Prosolar and Unistrut systems, as well.

PV, Solar Hot Water, and More

The Quick Mount PV Shake Roof Mount is the logical choice not only for solar PV installation, but also for rooftop solar hot water systems. In fact, whatever you need to fasten to a shake roof – HVAC equipment, antennas, satellite dishes – use Quick Mount PV to secure and protect every roof installation you put your name on.
