Weathervanes

Weathervanes add a sense of nostalgia to your rooftop, garden, or yard. Choose from a variety of styles and mounting options to enrich and personalize any location.

Weathervanes for rooftops—styles
Rooftop weathervanes are generally made from steel, aluminum or copper. Steel weathervanes are very strong and many are crafted with powder coat finishes for protection from the elements. Copper weathervanes come in polished and verdigris finishes. Aluminum weathervanes have metallic polished finishes, as well as styles painted in realistic colors. Rooftop weathervanes come in multiple styles including horses, tractors, nautical designs, different birds, and trains, to name a few types available.

Weathervanes for rooftops—sizes
The first important consideration before choosing a rooftop weathervane is the size of the building the weathervane will be mounted on. Large rooftop weathervanes look best on large barns or multiple-story homes, while mid-sized rooftop weathervanes work well for single-story houses or smaller barns. The smallest rooftop weathervanes add charm to smaller structures, like gazebos.

Garden weathervanes
When it comes to weathervanes, don’t limit yourself to a roof. Garden weathervanes add an extra personal touch to your yard or garden. Steel, copper, or aluminum garden weathervanes have the same weather-resistant construction as rooftop weathervanes, and come in just as many styles, appealing to your personal interests. Lighthouses, canines, livestock, and hummingbirds are among the popular design choices.

Weathervane components and mounting options
Complete weathervane components include the ornament, directionals, a rod, spacer balls, and mounting hardware. Some weathervanes come complete with all the components. Many weathervanes give you mounting options—you can install your weathervane just about anywhere you would like. Roof mounts adjust to a roof’s specific pitch. Garden mounts allow for several inches to be implanted firmly into the ground. Post mounts are useful for mounting weathervanes on vertical surfaces. Deck mounting hardware secures the weathervane to horizontal surfaces.

A beautiful weathervane will give you good reason to look forward to windy days. It will enhance your home or garden by adding a touch of class and a conversation piece.
