Elevated hip batten may be secured with mechanical fixings and/or batten straps. Ensure small tile cuts, that cannot be mechanically fixed at the hip in the normal way, are secured using the short or long hip clips supplies. Once built-up hip is complete and small tile custs are secured, ensure tiles are dry and free from dust or other surface contamination. Lay the ridge roll centrally along the hip batten and secure with staple or suitable nails. Remove protective backing from the Butyl strips and dress over the tile to produce a continuous surface contact. The Hip Trays are then fitted to support the hip tiles, keeping them straight and level when screw-fixing to the hip. Trays should be secured with a single corrosion resistant clout nail and overlapped by 50mm along the hip when necessary. Trays can be cut as required at the eaves and mitred at the ridge. Once the hip support trays are in place, hip tiles can be fitted in the same manner as Ridge Tiles.
