What Is A Metal Parapet Cap?

A metal parapet cap is used when you have a wall that has metal panels on both sides of the wall. The parapet cap covers the wall and both ends of the metal panels. It creates a uniform look and prevents water intrusion.

This installation detail is for a vertical metal wall panel only. It should not be used for horizontal metal wall panels.
