What's The Difference Between Gable and Single Slope Roof?
There are different roof style options for Metal Building depending on your taste and requirements but the most common are Gable Slope and Single Slope. Let’s see what’s the difference between them.
Gable Roofs
Gable roofs are best recognized on most regular buildings. They have a shape of an upside-down “V” and rafters angled alongside a central ridge. Gable roofs can come in any number of different roof pitches.
These types of roof can be proportionate in design, meaning both slopes are the same size, or they can feature offset peaks, meaning they are unsymmetrical by design. Gable roofs are often chosen by buyers who prefer the triangular look and have a certain aesthetic in mind.

Single Slope Roofs
As the name suggests, Single Slope roofs slope in only one direction. They can serve a range of purposes and come with a number of need-based roof pitches.
This type of roof needs support of a strong framing underneath and is a common option as a Lean-to structure onto existing gable-roof buildings. Lean-To can be added either at the same height as the existing gable building or at a lower one depending on your needs. You can choose a single slope attachment in an open or enclosed style.
