LedgerShield is a small business striving to make a significant impact in the realm of deck construction. David Paul, the Inventor and Founder of LedgerShield, LLC, identified several safety issues arising from the improper application of safety standards to ledger flashing products that are widely available on the market. These products have not only failed but have also contributed to dangerous incidents, including deck and balcony collapses, resulting in thousands of injuries and hundreds of fatalities.

According to the R703.4 flashing standards, existing butyl ledger flashing products are evaluated for nail sealability using roofing nails or #8 wood screws. This indicates that current products are not tested with real-world deck construction fastening hardware, leading to improper validation of their effectiveness. While we are actively working to address this gap from a code and testing perspective, our ledger flashing system stands out as the only solution that exceeds the AAMA 711 safety standards when using the appropriate fasteners. You can access our testing reports on our Products page.
In addition to meeting or surpassing all safety standards, LedgerShield is the simplest ledger flashing system to install, guaranteed. With installation taking just over 3 minutes per segment, you can ensure your deck construction project remains on schedule and within budget.
