Dana, We were looking for a square cap, but I think I remember some rectangular ones? Their site isn't very navigable, so maybe a call to C.S.?

I suggested filing the ends with grey caulk, but the homeowner didn't like that idea. I think I'm leaning toward finding some aluminum channel or angle to fit over the end and either glue or screw it on. Mark - Did you find rectangular vinyl caps? I checked out caplugs, but couldn't find anything that looked like it would work.

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. Holt E.

From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]]<mailto:[mailto:[email protected]]> On Behalf Of Dana Brandt Sent: Friday, August 10, 2012 3:12 PM To: RE-wrenches Subject: [RE-wrenches] Unirac SolarMount rail caps 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?
