I have my repeater installed on a metal shop. What I did was place my antenna on a mast about six feet above the roof I have had no problems.

Don't buy the ZBoost, but rather the Wilson DB Pro. I had to mount the antennae outside and well above the roof. If you read the requirements closely (on any system) you will find that they want a minimum VERTICAL distance as well as a HORIZONTAL. If I recall the ZBoost wants a 25 foot VERTICAL, which is above the roof line unless you have a 2 story house and a basement.The Wilson wants about the same. I mounted my outside antennae on an expandable pole to the chimney.

I bought this product to solve a cellular service problem inside my new shop. The building is basically a metal pole barn with the metal liner interior. When the doors are closed it's basically an effective Faraday Cage and no signal get in or out ... sorry NSA, no snooping there. I installed this product with the good RG6 cable and the external antenna mounted on the roof and the unit inside. I get full bars of service inside the shop. I get better service in the shop now than in my house. It did exactly what I wanted. Also I am able to walk in and out of the building without dropping calls.

I do not know, contact the manufacturer, they may have a special kit to install on the metal roof

I returned the awning because I was unable to mount it onto siding, so I cannot answer your question. Sorry.

I would suggest that you locate the studs behind the siding in order to install it without any problems.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure. But I do know that (1) you must be able to lift the first few inches of the roofing at the edge to insert the screens, and (2) I'm always Leary about putting regular steel and aluminum into contact in case a galvanic reaction begins.

I had the same roof. Simply make a roof extension with 3/4 PVC pipe and fitings

I have no idea but I would contact the manufacturer of both the roof and the coating before using.

That would have been my question as well. I may give it a try as I'd use it only after checking the radar and weather.com. I'll put the heavy items on the lowest racks, maybe put bricks around the legs. The other problem I foresee is perching birds, but I'll use the bird-scare tape I use in the garden, on the sides. And if rust becomes an issue, there's Rustoleum.

Simply place it flat against the siding and bolt it in. We did it and it worked perfectl

I have not installed it yet. I am using the regular Mohu antenna and have aluminum siding without problems.

Put some 2.4s on each side and build out the sides of the frame to fit the a/c

For maximum performance the panel should be tilted from straight up vertical toward the south by your angle of latitude (approximately 30 degrees in the south to 48 degrees in the north). Since roofs are rarely at the correct angle, you will need to compensate by making some custom brackets. I used 1 inch aluminum tubing flattened on the ends and 1/8 x 1 inch aluminum strap available at Lowes or Home Depot. Four brackets are needed with 1/4 inch screws and bolts.

Cut the siding out. J channel the edges plywood the cutout paint and mount the brackets.

The adhesive will give way under weather.There is a centered hole that you can screw or nail them into the siding That worked for me

A gas furnace would be your best bet. You will need to reach about 1350 degrees for a good pour. WEAR EYE PROTECTION & LEATHERS!!!! HEAT UP WHAT EVER YOUR POURING INTO!!! Aluminum can get REAL NASTY REAL QUICK!!!!

The color is aluminum, it could be spray painted to match your existing roofing.
