And now, a good thing just got even better again. As featured on This Old House, the Timberline HDZ® Shingles installed here are Oyster Gray. It’s never just a roof. It’s a promise, kept. Providing a home means making a promise — of shelter, security, and stability. It says to the people who count on you, “You’re going to be safe, dry, and warm under this roof.” Choosing a Timberline HDZ ® roof is a great way to help keep that promise. It’s our first shingle ever to come with patented LayerLock™ Technology. That means it’s engineered for the best possible installation. LayerLock™ Technology strengthens the bond between layers of your Timberline HDZ ® Shingles. To help your roofer give you the best possible installation. And to help you rest easy when the wind is howling outside. Here’s how it works: The strength added by LayerLock™ Technology allowed GAF to create the StrikeZone™ nailing area — the industry’s widest nail zone — which offered 99.9% nailing accuracy in our test.1 LayerLock™ Technology also powers the industry’s first wind warranty with no maximum wind speed limitation. Timberline HDZ ® Shingles are eligible for the WindProven™ limited wind warranty when installed with the required combination of four qualifying GAF Accessories.2 It’s a shingle that helps your roofer do their best work. 1 Results based on study conducted by Home Innovation Research Labs, an independent research lab, comparing installation of Timberline HD® Shingles to Timberline HDZ® Shingles on a 16-square roof deck using standard 4-nail nailing pattern under controlled laboratory conditions. Actual results may vary. 2 15-year WindProven™ limited wind warranty on GAF Shingles with LayerLock™ Technology requires the use of GAF Starter Strips, Roof Deck Protection, Ridge Cap Shingles, and Leak Barrier or Attic Ventilation. See GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty for complete coverage and restrictions. Visit gaf.com/LRS for qualifying GAF products. For installations not eligible for the GAF Roofing System Limited Warranty, see the GAF Shingle & Accessory Limited Warranty. TECHNOLOGY LAYERLOCK™ 2 LayerLock™ Technology mechanically fuses the common bond between overlapping shingle layers. The added strength at the common bond powers the StrikeZone™ — the industry’s widest nailing area. It’s a system, built to protect A Timberline HDZ ® roof is so much more than shingles. It’s layers of protection, working together to help keep your home safe from rain, snow, sun, and wind. In fact, installing 4 qualifying GAF Accessories — GAF starter strips, roof deck protection, ridge cap shingles, and either leak barrier or attic ventilation — in one roof system makes Timberline HDZ ® Shingles eligible for the WindProven™ limited wind warranty.1 Timberline HDZ ® Shingles also feature GAF Time-Release Algae-Fighting Technology, for long-lasting algae-fighting power, and come with a 25-year StainGuard Plus™ Algae Protection Limited Warranty against blue-green algae discoloration.2 1 15-year WindProven™ limited wind warranty on GAF Shingles with LayerLock™ Technology requires the use of GAF Starter Strips, Roof Deck Protection, Ridge Cap Shingles, and Leak Barrier or Attic Ventilation.
