Abstract

An arrangement for a protective cover for the edge of a sheet metal at roof-to-wall abutments, comprising a cover strip which is placed above the upper edge of the sheet metal edge panel. A clamping strap is employed which runs transversely with respect to the cover strip and thus with respect to the edge of the sheet metal panel and is attached to the wall by means of screws or nails. The clamping strap includes a flexible leg which stands off the wall and projects upwards. The upper edge portion of the cover strip is bent off twice against the wall, whereby the bent-off edge hooks behind the stand-off leg of clamping straps.
