Abstract
Reglet means, counterflashing, and connector and biasing means are provided having the reglet means adapted to be secured to a building wall to afford flashing above a roofing end reaching upwardly and lapping the wall. The reglet means includes hood structure which receives shaped upper end means of the counterflashing while apron means of the hood structure, and the connector and biasing means, are interrelated so that with the connector and biasing means being inserted into the hood structure from below, with bight means of the connector and biasing means leading, first presser means of the connector and biasing means and means on the apron means engage for stopping the connector and biasing means against being retracted from the hood structure, and second presser means of the connector and biasing means acts against the counterflashing for the latter to cover and urge the roofing end to be supported against the building wall while the connector and biasing means arrests the shaped upper end means of the counterflashing against downward movement from the hood structure.
