When there is no overhang, as in this picture, we can
mount on the
side of your structure and not penetrate the roof.
The construction materials and methods used in these kind of
structures presents a unique challenge to the proper installation of
the WildBlue system. The roof framing materials used are a smaller
dimension than that used for site built construction. The large
bolts that we are required to use to attach the mount causes the
roof framing to split and not grab the threads of the bolt. And the
mounting bolts are longer than the roof framing is thick - which
again does not give us the gripping strength we need for the long
term installation. Yes, there used to be guys who would install
these systems on the roof of mobile/modular homes but they are
pretty much all in a different line of work now. Mounting to the
roof of mobile/modular homes is not an approved mounting option. We
quite often can mount to the corner wall of your home. When it comes
to mobile/modular home or offices - it is best to talk to us about
your particular location/situation so we can zoom in on your
specific needs. There is a way to get you the WildBlue connection
you want - we just need to talk about it.
