Anchor-free mounting system
Good news: our mounting system can now often be installed completely anchor-free. No more hassle with drilling into vulnerable roofing or doubts about load-bearing capacity.
RABLE supplies to installers, property owners and wholesalers.
Our anchor-free system keeps weak points out of harm's way
The best part? With a span of up to 25 meters, our system rests directly on the roof's beams. This way, the weaker spots literally remain out of harm's way.
Less work, less risk, and more certainty. (And no, you don't have to be a mathematician to install it)
The main advantages:
We previously supplied to the following companies:
Project Huizingalaan Eindhoven
An example from practice
Although traditional solar panels are often too heavy for the canopies of petrol stations, our system does offer possibilities. This is evident from the successful project on the Huizingalaan in Eindhoven.

Frequently asked questions from installers
For which roofs is the RABLE system suitable?
The RABLE system is suitable for all flat roofs. For weak roofs it is a unique solution because it is a self-supporting system that distributes the weight evenly over the trusses and/or beams of a roof. The system carries its own weight and that of the panels. It can therefore be applied directly to weak roofs, without structural renovation (and investments) to buildings with limitations in the roof construction. Ballast is also not necessary.
Our mounting system weighs 3 kg/m². The total load including standard panels (approx. 10-12 kg/m²) is a maximum of 13 kg/m². With lightweight panels the maximum load is approx. 7 kg/m².
Is RABLE suitable for roofs with limited load-bearing capacity?
Yes! What makes RABLE unique is that it is a self-supporting mounting system. The system carries both its own weight and that of the panels. This makes it directly applicable to roofs with limited load-bearing capacity, without the need for structural renovations or investments in the roof structure. In addition, no ballast is required.
How is the system attached to the roof?
Our RABLE mounting system uses roof anchors that are applied to the ends of the structure to effectively control uplift forces. This system requires up to 80% fewer roof anchors compared to traditional systems, which offers a cost-effective solution. For each project, we determine the number of roof anchors required taking into account factors such as building height and wind zone. This ensures a safe installation with minimal roof loading and lower installation costs.
Does it work with any type of solar panel?
RABLE is suitable for all types of solar panels, regardless of weight or size. We use industry standard mounting clamps and also take into account the different dimensions that panels can have.
Are there installers who use RABLE systems?

What certificates are there?
RABLE system has the required certificates regarding corrosion requirements and NEN 1010. Laying plans are supplied in accordance with the requirements of NEN 7250, based on, among other things, the Eurocodes for snow and wind loads. We also have a wind tunnel certification that you can find under ''downloads'' on our website.
Do RABLE tension cables cause energy loss?
The steel cables cause a limited shadow cast, which results in a yield loss < 3%. Good to know that the RABLE has a walkway every 4 panels (instead of every 2 panels with a traditional mounting system). This more than compensates for the small amount of energy loss of the steel cable.
Which types of roofs are suitable for our system?
Our system is suitable for flat roofs with a slope of up to 10 degrees and works on all types of roofing such as EPDM, PVC and Bitumen, and on steel and concrete roof panels.
