Product Description & Key Features
The product provides a habitable roost space for small crevice-dwelling bat species found in the UK. The product is a self-contained, externally mounted unit which offers no means of access for the bats to enter the roofspace or the property.
The Bat Ridge Roost is optimised to work in conjunction with the Manthorpe SmartVerge Polypropylene handed and ambidextrous dry verge systems (alternatively, could also be used with third party dry verge, traditional verge tiles or mortared in verge details).
The dual purpose product, also acts as a ridge end cap, providing a durable and protected covered finish for most styles of angled ridge tiles and is located at the end of the ridge tiles on a gable end.
The Bat Ridge Roost is made up of two units:
1. Mounting Plate
