The S-5! Story

By Anna Lockhart.  

Last year marked 30 years in business for S-5! Watch their YouTube series as they discuss the history of the company and their major highlights over the last three decades. 

It all started with snowfall.  

In the first episode of S-5!’s three-part YouTube series, The History of S-5!, CEO Rob Haddock explains where he found inspiration for the first of the company’s products. After shoveling snow out of the entry to his garage, a large snowbank slid from the roof, undoing the hard work he had put into clearing the area. This inspired Rob to create the very first of many metal roof attachments and snow guard systems that S-5! would manufacture for years to come.

The S-5! team is dedicated to delivering the highest value and quality attachment solutions for their customers through creative design and prudent engineering of products and systems that advance the metal roofing industry. The company has delivered on that promise and now after three decades and more than 100 patents awarded, S-5! continues its dedication to the research and testing of new product ideas that make metal the most user-friendly roof type available. 

The YouTube series highlights important breakthroughs and milestones the company founder and team have encountered over the last 30 years. From its humble beginnings to one of the most respected brands in the metal construction industry, the series is a great way to meet the dedicated team of metal roofing visionaries and learn how their disruptive innovations propelled the company to become a global icon within the space they created.  

Watch the three-part YouTube series that highlights S-5!’s inspiring story to learn about the people behind the brand and their progress over the last 30 years that has earned them the success they have today!
