Solar Panel Mounting Options
Thanks everyone, I wen twith SolarWaySuppliers. They some cheaper and of the same qaulity as others. I emailed KD and got better prices than at livestainable, but SolarWaySuppliers was still cheaper. KD sells every screw and bolt separately, but at least they add them to the quote when you ask for brackets and clamps. Now I just need the time to get on the roof and start installing. @Sidewinder it will be mounted horizontally. So will need about half of the rail length. Thanks for the tip, I'll put them on as high as possible. I'm in Centurion, so it's not that hot and only windy during two months of the year.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, @WannabeSolarSparky SolarWaySuppliers seem to be a good option. They'll cost me about R1700 less and I'm certain the roof hooks they have will be correct for my install. Due to the space I have I have to do landscape, which menas the rails will be running down the roof from the top to the gutter. This is the updated list from SolarWaySuppliers, I added extra roof hooks, so that I have 4 per rail. I've read a bit about the end rail caps, a lot of people say they fall off after a few months. Sounds like they might just block up the gutters?

Thanks @Sidewinder sorry, it will be a 2 * 3 installation, I realised I was missing 4 mid clamps after posting. Is the aluminium mounting systems preferred over galvanised?

Solar Panel Mounting Options
Good day, I purchased 6x Jinko Solar Panel Tiger JKM585N-72HL4-BDV Bifacial panels that I want to fit in landscape on a pitched tile roof. What are recommended options to mount them? I'm looking at KD solar, but they seem quite pricy compared to others. Is it worth paying the extra price? They also have the adjustable roof hook, which seems like it might make the installation easier? Attached is my shopping list from Livestainable. Is this sufficient? Any comments or feedback will be apreciated. Thank you.
