[RE-wrenches] Unirac SolarMount rail caps

[holtek at sbcglobal.net]

just throwing this out....aluminum angle attached to ends -  run between rail ends (each pair)? aluminum flat bar? closes ends and gives a trimmed look? Maybe use 24 or 22ga stainless than can be bent to form an angle? ask client to cover material cost as that is "custom" work beyond typical scope of build.

  For the Bee's sake, just pump some grey silicone caulk into the ends and scrape flat.  ??

  We just finished installing a system on SolarMount and the client is unhappy with how the ends of the SolarMount rail look. She says it looks unfinished and is concerned about bees nesting in them. I know there are other rail products with more finished looking ends but this system is already fully installed. Unirac has endcaps for the SunFrame, but those aren't compatible with SolarMount. Anyone run into this before? Thoughts on solutions?

  Thanks,

  Dana
