Applications
Roof tiles
Tiled roofs require a solution that doesn't damage the roof. We show you which roof hooks and systems you can use. We also explain the difference between panel clamps and an insertion system.
Slate roofs
Slates (natural or fibre cement) are beautiful, but fragile. Choose a solution that distributes the pressure well. Also make sure that openings are waterproof. Here you will find tips and mistakes that you can avoid.
Corrugated sheets
For each profile you need a different bracket or screw. We help you make the right choice. This way you work quickly and everything is firmly attached. Our solutions match the profile and the roof structure. Whether you work with fiberglass or corrugated steel sheets, you always have a reliable solution.
Standing Seam
Often, a clamp fastening without drilling is the fastest solution. This keeps the roof strong and you work faster. See when you can apply this and what you should pay attention to in higher wind zones.
Trapezoid/Sandwich
The thickness and attachment points determine what you need. We help you choose the right solution for your roof.
Bitumen/EPDM/PVC
Pay attention to temperature, adhesion and waterproofing. Check out what you should and shouldn't do for a good installation.

Contact Van der Valk Solar Systems for tailored advice and a solution that fits your needs.
Solar panels on a sloping roof are attached with roof hooks, clamps, hanger screws or profiles. You can choose panel clamps or an insert system. Which solution is best depends on the type of roof and the substructure. Always ensure a firm attachment and a good waterproof finish. This prevents leakage and damage.
There is no one best solution: it depends on your roof. With tiled roofs, you often use hooks or an inlay system. With metal roofs, you choose special clamps, hanger screws or attach the profile directly to the roof.
Always choose a system that suits your roof type and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions.
Install roof hooks on the support slats and secure them securely.
The distance is usually between 30 and 40 cm, depending on wind and snow load. Always check the guidelines of the system.
Whether you work with the Slimline (adjustable), an aluminum hanging hook that clamps easily and quickly behind the batten, or the Smartline, a screwed roof hook that provides a strong connection to the roof construction.
Yes, you can. For corrugated sheets, you use special brackets or screw systems that match the profile. For slate roofs, choose a solution that prevents point loads and finish penetrations watertight. Always follow the instructions provided by the system.
