Starter Unit and Blanking Plates
Our Starter Units and Blanking Plates pack includes 2 Starter Units and 2 Blanking Plates, designed to provide a clean, secure and weather‑resistant finish to any dry‑fix universal verge system.
Starter Unit (Verge U)
Starter Units—also known as eaves closures—are used to prevent water ingress and infestation at the eaves. They are mechanically fixed to the end of the fascia board or brickwork, forming a strong starting point for the verge system.
Blanking Plate
Sometimes referred to as ridge closures, Blanking Plates fit neatly over the final verge unit’s grille at the roof apex. This provides a clean, aesthetic finish while ensuring protection against infestation, water ingress and weather exposure.
