Interlock® Aluminum Roofing — all-climates performance specs for Lents, Oregon
| Spec / Rating | Climate / Risk Factor + What It Solves |
|---|---|
| Wind resistance: 120+ mph (193+ kph) | Extreme wind, hurricanes, storm uplift: full interlocking attachment helps prevent blow-offs, edge lifting, and panel loss in high-gust events. |
| Fire rating: Class A (with proper assembly) | Wildfire, embers, radiant heat, chimney sparks: non-combustible roof assembly provides the highest residential fire protection rating. |
| Hail resistance: UL 2218 Class 4 | Hail and impact debris: highest impact classification; resists cracking, splitting, and surface loss common with asphalt under hail strikes. |
| Snow & ice performance: interlocking, shedding profile | Heavy snow, freeze-thaw, ice dams: smooth aluminum sheds snow efficiently and the interlocking design helps block water intrusion when melt-refreeze cycles occur. (Final snow-load capacity depends on roof structure and local code.) |
| Corrosion resistance: aluminum (won’t rust) | Salt air, coastal humidity, wet climates: aluminum naturally resists rust and corrosion, reducing long-term failure risk in marine or high-moisture environments. |
| Heat / UV durability: baked-on coating system | High heat, intense sun, thermal cycling: coatings resist UV breakdown and temperature-swing fatigue, slowing fading and surface degradation. |
| Moss / algae resistance: smooth coated surface | Wet shade, organic growth: low-porosity metal surface gives moss/algae less to grip, reducing staining and maintenance. |
| Material: heavy-gauge aluminum roof profiles (Slate / Shake / Shingle / Tile / Standing Seam) | All-season structural stability: lightweight, dent-resistant metal system stays stable through large hot-cold swings and severe weather. |
| Expected lifespan: 50+ years | Long-term durability across climates: avoids re-roof cycles typical of shorter-life materials, even in high-stress environments. |
| Warranty: Lifetime-Limited, non-prorated + 50-year transferable | Lifetime protection + resale value: guarantees long-term material confidence and transfers to future owners. |

What our customers are saying:
We were so impressed with Interlock Roofing. The entire process was great from sales, to installation to clean up. They made the process easy even when we had a few curveballs for them. They worked with us wonderfully the entire time and our roof looks amazing. The installation team was so nice and respectful. Our roof is beautiful.
From start to finish the folks at Interlock were amazing. After our home was damaged in last years wildfires in rural Oregon; we made the decision to replace the roof and siding in nonflammable materials. Our roof is beautiful. I’ve already had so many compliments on how great it looks and I’ll sleep better knowing my home is safe from exterior fire. The two workers were so polite and did an impeccable cleanup! I would highly recommend Interlock Industries.Sincerely, Sharon Shepard Positive: Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value Services: Attic venting, Roof installation
Love our new roof! Looks great and will last a lifetime. Install was fast, done in less than 2 days. The crew was courteous, professional and took the time to clean up the property before they left. Highly recommend.
We are very pleased with our new Aluminum roof, it looks great. The installing crew was topnotch! Very professional, friendly, on time daily, and cleaned the area daily as well. I will recommend Interlock to anyone who needs a new roof. Thank you Interlock!
INCREDIBLE experience from start to finish. From the moment we met with Damon and Mike, through the contract and purchase process, into scheduling and installation - we have had an amazing experience. The product and service are ABSOLUTELY worth the investment. We LOVE our new roof and give Interlocking Roof our highest recommendation. Positive Responsiveness, Punctuality, Quality, Professionalism, Value ServicesRoof installation
I was amazed at the size of the roofing materials and their parts. Their roofing materials do “InterLock” to become a roof where water cannot find a way through it. The crew was very professional in their manner and expert in removing the old roofing material, then installing the new. They answered all my questions so I could completely understand their answers. The crew really impressed me by how quickly they completed the job.We had them replace some exposed beams in our alcove. The workmanship was great.The crew also did a great job of policing up our yard after they had finished the roofing. I recommend InterLock roofing to anyone who needs a new roof.

They cleaned up everything before leaving at the end. I was very pleased with the whole process! Thank you, Interlock! Services: Roof installation, Attic venting
Our 18 year house needed something. A local roofer suggested a$ 5 K, roof treatment with yearly treatment of $1000. And a roof replacement with shingles at 60K. We looked into Interlock. I was impressed with the product and the absence of middlemen between installation. And quality if the product. The investment was significantly higher but we were impressed and felt it would be the best choice. The crew was polite and professional. They cleaned up every day as promised As you can see from the picture the roof is beautiful Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Service: Roof installation
I absolutely love my new roof. Damon my sales rep was fantastic and the installers were the height of professionalism3/8/2021So after the snow and ice storm last month my metal roof still looks great and for the first time in 22 years I didn't have to worry about losing shingles in the storm.

Deciding to switch to an aluminum roof was a significant decision for us, and honestly, the selection process was a bit overwhelming. There are so many styles and finishes available, and it took us quite a while to finally make our choice. If you're considering aluminum, be prepared to invest time in understanding your options.The installation process itself also took longer than we initially anticipated, especially compared to the asphalt shingle replacements we've had done in the past. This is something to factor into your timeline if you're working with specific deadlines.However, despite the longer decision and installation periods, we are extremely pleased with the final result. The aluminum roof looks fantastic and has significantly improved the curb appeal of our home. It truly turned out nice.We were also impressed with the attention to detail shown by Interlock Metal Roofing. They used what appeared to be the correct mounting hardware, ensuring a secure and professional installation. Additionally, they didn't hesitate to replace any damaged or weakened boards as needed, which gave us peace of mind regarding the roof's long-term integrity.Overall, while the decision-making and installation processes were more involved than expected, the quality of the finished product and the professionalism of Interlock Metal Roofing made it a worthwhile investment. We would recommend them to others considering an aluminum roof, with the caveat that they should be prepared for a longer timeline.
We are quite pleased with our new Interlock roof. It adds to the character of our house and looks great from any direction. Also, neighbors have extended their compliments. The experience, from start to finish was handled smoothly and professionally. When the project began, Art and Daniel worked hard, putting in long hours and cleaning the job site each day. Also, they were personable, responded to our questions, and accommodated a couple of requests as the job went along. In short, the roof looks great, and now that the fall rains have begun, we are especially pleased to have the job completed for the approaching winter. Nothing comes to mind. Nothing at this time.
I had a "slate style" metal roof installed by Interlock Roofing and these guys are great! They were so polite and fast, they got my whole roof done in just two days and cleaned up the site perfectly. I would highly recommend them. Positive, Professionalism, Services: Roof installation

Metal Roofing FAQs for Homeowners in Lents
The following metal roofing FAQs are designed specifically for homeowners in Lents, Oregon. Whether you are building a new home or replacing an existing roof, understanding how roofing materials perform in local weather conditions is essential. From wind and storm protection to fire resistance, hail impact, snow loads, and coastal moisture exposure, Interlock’s Lifetime Aluminum Roofing System is engineered to provide long-term durability, energy efficiency, and peace of mind in Lents.
Does a metal roof handle Lents' snow and ice buildup?
Yes—aluminum's smooth surface and interlocking design shed snow and ice far more effectively than asphalt, which traps moisture through freeze-thaw cycles. Lents averages about 48 cm of snow annually and roughly 36 freeze-thaw days per year, conditions that accelerate shingle degradation and ice-dam formation. Interlock panels' four-way interlocking system, combined with proper snow guards if needed, directs water away before it refreezes. The lightweight construction (Slate profile at 0.41 lb/sq ft) also means no structural stress from accumulated snow weight, unlike concrete or clay tile.
How well do metal panels handle the rain we get in this area?
Interlock's interlocking design channels the 1,468 mm of annual rainfall in Lents away from seams and fasteners—the primary leak points in conventional roofs. The four-way mechanical lock between panels creates a continuous path that directs water downslope before it can pool or penetrate. This system is verified under ICC-ES ESR-1790 (updated 2025) for compliance with IBC/IRC building codes, which govern water-shedding performance in high-rainfall regions like Multnomah County. Combined with solid deck installation and proper underlayment, the result is reliable protection through Oregon's wet winters.
Can a metal roof stand up to Lents' wind and storm gusts?
Interlock roofs are warranted to resist wind speeds up to 120 mph (193 km/h) when installed to specification. Lents experiences typical daily-max winds around 15 km/h with gusts reaching 116 km/h—well within that rated capacity. The four-way interlocking aluminum panels create a unified structural system that distributes wind load across the entire roof rather than stressing individual fasteners. That mechanical lock, combined with proper installation, means your roof won't lift, flex, or shed panels in the Pacific Northwest's seasonal storms.
Will aluminum roofing rust in Oregon's wet climate?
Aluminum cannot rust because it contains no iron—the metal's naturally forming oxide layer actually self-heals when scratched, unlike steel roofing, which requires protective coatings that eventually fail. Interlock panels use roofing-grade 3105-H24 and 3003-H24 aluminum alloy (ASTM B209) with a Alunar 70% PVDF fluorocarbon finish applied to both sides, warranted 30 years against chalking and fading. In Lents' damp climate with 1,468 mm of annual rain, that two-sided protection is critical—it guards against corrosion from moisture exposure on the underside, a risk that steel roofing owners face within 10–15 years.
Do metal roofs save energy, or do they just heat up in summer?
energy-efficient Interlock colors reflect rather than absorb solar heat, with thermal emissivity of 0.84 and initial solar reflectance up to 0.55—a Cool Roof Rating Council rating that measurably reduces attic temperatures. Lents receives about 2,957 hours of annual sunshine, so even mild heat reflection adds up over months. Unlike asphalt shingles, which absorb this energy and transfer it indoors, the reflective Alunar coating keeps your home cooler in summer without sacrificing winter performance. The result: lower cooling costs and less strain on air-conditioning systems.
What happens if hail hits my metal roof?
Interlock panels carry a UL 2218 Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and the Guardian Warranty even covers perforation from hailstones up to 1.5 inches. That durability may qualify homeowners for insurance discounts; contact your provider with the UL 2218 Class 4 documentation. In Lents' climate, hail isn't frequent, but when severe weather does strike, aluminum's non-denting resilience far outperforms asphalt shingles, which crack and tear under impact. Class 4 protection means you're covered against rare but costly damage.
Can my house's frame handle a metal roof, or do I need to reinforce it?
No structural reinforcement is needed. Interlock's Mediterranean Tile profile installs at just 0.59 lb/sq ft—about 96% lighter than concrete or clay tile—so it rests safely on any roof structure that currently supports asphalt shingles or wood shakes. The Slate and Cedar Shingle profiles are even lighter (0.41 and 0.58 lb/sq ft respectively). This weight advantage is especially valuable in Lents, where about 36 freeze-thaw days per year stress traditional heavy materials, potentially loosening fasteners or cracking support beams over decades. Aluminum's feather weight eliminates that burden entirely.
How long does an Interlock metal roof last, and what does the warranty cover?
The Guardian Warranty offers a lifetime limited, non-prorated material warranty to the original owner—covering rusting, rotting, splitting, cracking, curling, and loss of impact resistance—with a one-time transfer that grants the next owner 50 years from completion. That structure reflects aluminum's true lifespan: asphalt roofs typically fail in 15–20 years in Lents' wet, freeze-thaw environment (36 days/year), while Interlock panels are designed to outlast several generations of ownership. The transferable warranty also protects your home's resale value by assuring future buyers they inherit the same long-term protection.
How much upkeep does a metal roof actually need compared to asphalt or tile?
Interlock metal roofs require virtually no routine maintenance. Unlike asphalt shingles, which degrade under Lents' 1,468 mm annual rainfall and demand algae cleaning, moss removal, and resealing every few years, aluminum panels are verified under CALGreen standards for reduced maintenance. Unlike traditional clay or concrete tile, which crack in freeze-thaw cycles (36 days/year here) and require mortar repointing, Interlock's interlocking aluminum design sheds debris and water without clogging gutters or trapping organic growth. No coating refresh, no sealed seams to repair—just wash occasionally and inspect after storms.
Is a metal roof actually better for the environment than asphalt shingles?
Yes. Interlock aluminum panels are approximately 95% recyclable at end of life, while asphalt shingles become construction waste destined for landfill—a cycle repeated every 15–20 years in Lents' wet climate. Over a 50-year period, one asphalt roof generates roughly 3–4 roof replacements and tons of landfill burden. Aluminum, by contrast, is infinitely recyclable without degradation. The Alunar coating (70% PVDF) is also engineered for durability, so your roof stays in service longer, further reducing material waste. Choosing Interlock means breaking the tear-off cycle and investing in a product designed for the circular economy.
Is a metal roof a good choice for Lents’s climate?
Yes. Lents averages about 48 cm of snow, 1468 mm of rain, roughly 36 freeze–thaw days a year, with peak wind gusts near 116 km/h. Interlock® aluminum roofing is wind-rated to 193+ km/h (120 mph), UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated and Class A fire-rated, and its four-way interlocking panels shed snow and resist ice dams and freeze–thaw cracking — all backed by a lifetime limited, transferable warranty.
