32/1000 box profile sheeting is a popular metal roofing and cladding sheet profile used on a wide range of agricultural, commercial, industrial and domestic buildings.
The name refers to the sheet profile: the raised box-shaped ribs are approximately 32mm deep, with a cover width of around 1000mm. This gives the sheet a strong, practical profile that is commonly used for both roofing and wall cladding applications.
Hardy Roofing Supplies can supply 32/1000 box profile sheeting for suitable projects, with options for sheet lengths, finishes, fixings, flashings and delivery across Kent, the South East, the South West and wider Southern England.
What Does 32/1000 Box Profile Sheeting Mean?
32/1000 describes the shape and cover width of the sheet profile.
The “32” refers to the approximate depth of the profile in millimetres. The “1000” refers to the approximate cover width of the sheet once installed and overlapped correctly.
Box profile sheets have a more angular shape than traditional corrugated sheets. This makes them a common choice for modern roofing and cladding projects where a clean, practical and robust appearance is required.
Where Is 32/1000 Box Profile Sheeting Used?
32/1000 box profile sheeting is used across many different building types. It can be suitable for new installations, repair work, refurbishment projects and replacement roofing sheet enquiries.
Common uses include:
- Agricultural buildings
- Barns and stores
- Commercial units
- Industrial buildings
- Workshops
- Garages and outbuildings
- Wall cladding projects
- Replacement roofing sheet projects
The correct sheet specification will depend on the building, the application, the roof pitch, the supporting structure and the required finish.
Can 32/1000 Box Profile Sheets Be Used for Roofs and Walls?
Yes, 32/1000 box profile sheets are commonly used for both roofing and wall cladding applications, subject to the project requirements.
For roof applications, the sheet length, roof pitch, laps, fixings and flashings all need to be considered. For wall cladding, the required orientation, finish, fixings and trims should be confirmed before ordering.
If you are unsure whether 32/1000 box profile sheeting is suitable for your project, Hardy Roofing Supplies can discuss the building type, measurements, photos and delivery details before quoting.
What Thicknesses Are Available?
32/1000 box profile sheeting is commonly available in different thickness options depending on the project and product availability.
Hardy Roofing Supplies can discuss suitable options, including commonly used 0.5mm and 0.7mm metal sheet choices where available.
The right thickness can depend on the building use, sheet length, support spacing, exposure and whether the sheets are being used for roofing or cladding.
What Finishes and Colours Are Available?
Metal box profile sheets are usually available in a range of colours and coating options, subject to product availability.
Common finish options may include polyester painted or PVC Plastisol coated sheets. The best option will depend on the building, budget, appearance and performance requirements.
If you are replacing existing sheets and need to match a colour, send clear photographs of the current roof or cladding. Exact colour matching can depend on the age, finish and weathering of the existing sheets.
Can Sheets Be Supplied to Size?
For many projects, roofing sheets can be supplied to the required length. This can help reduce waste and make installation more straightforward.
When requesting cut-to-length roofing sheets, provide the required sheet lengths, approximate quantity, colour or finish preference, and whether the sheets are for roofing, wall cladding or replacement work.
If you are replacing existing sheets, measure the full sheet length from end to end where possible. For roof sheets still in place, measure from the eaves to the ridge or to the point where the sheet finishes.
Do 32/1000 Box Profile Sheets Need Fixings?
Most roofing and cladding projects will require suitable fixings and accessories. The correct fixing type can depend on the sheet profile, supporting structure and application.
Useful details to provide include whether the sheets are being fixed to timber, steel purlins or another structure.
Hardy Roofing Supplies can supply fixings and accessories alongside roofing sheet orders where required.
Do You Need Flashings and Trims?
Many box profile roofing and cladding projects also require flashings, trims or closure pieces.
These may include:
- Ridge flashings
- Barge flashings
- Corner trims
- Eaves flashings
- Apron flashings
- Foam fillers or closures
Hardy Roofing Supplies can supply bespoke flashings and trims to suit roofing, cladding, repair and replacement requirements.
Can 32/1000 Sheets Help With Replacement Roofing Projects?
32/1000 box profile sheeting may be suitable for some replacement roofing sheet projects, depending on the existing profile and project requirements.
If you are trying to match an old or damaged sheet, photos and measurements are extremely useful. Send clear images of the roof area, the end profile of the sheet, the existing fixings and any flashings or trims that may need replacing.
For replacement enquiries, you can also use Hardy Roofing Supplies’ profile measurement guide to record pitch, depth, crown, valley, gap below the crown, cover width and overall width before sending your details.
