GAF’s Timberline® family is widely used for architectural asphalt roofing, and it’s backed by technologies designed to improve installation consistency and durability. LayerLock® Technology mechanically fuses the shingle layers at the bond, and it powers the StrikeZone® nailing area—GAF describes this as the industry’s widest nailing zone.
What that means for your roof:
A stronger shingle-to-shingle bond where the layers overlap
A clear, easy-to-hit nailing target that supports consistent fastening
A finished look with popular architectural profiles and a wide range of colors (explore options in the shingle widgets below)
GAF offers limited warranties that can cover manufacturing defects, and they also offer enhanced warranty optionswhen eligibility requirements are met and the roof is installed through a GAF certified contractor.
Here’s a simple way to think about the enhanced tiers (full terms and restrictions apply):
System Plus Limited Warranty — extends the Smart Choice Protection Period and includes tear-off when necessary.
Silver Pledge™ Limited Warranty — includes everything in System Plus and adds 10 years of workmanship coverage plus disposal when necessary.
Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty — includes everything in Silver Pledge and extends workmanship coverage (length depends on the shingle you choose).
