KLS telescopic aluminum edge has a perforated, L-shaped flange to allow for continuous drainage and to keep the edge in place without any roof attachment. It is telescopic, because the 6 ½‘ individual pieces have an insert of the same length, allowing finished lengths to be adjustable between 6 ½’ and 13’. This saves installation time, and makes cutting pieces to specific lengths unnecessary.

Designed by Seattle-based Thomas Rengstorf & Associates (TRA), landscape architect Forrest Jammer of TRA who selected DIADEM® USA as the green roof system for many reasons, especially for the quality to engineer a roof that would not only provide an aesthetically pleasing retreat, but also complement the overall sustainability goals of the expansion.
