OVERLY at a Glance

Founded in 1888 in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, OVERLY Panel Systems began as a small operation by master tinsmith William Fisher Overly. What started with handcrafted tin spires and steeples for churches quickly evolved into a national enterprise—eventually producing up to one spire or steeple per day for iconic projects across the country.

OVERLY’s Milestones in Metal Roof and Wall Systems

  • 1970s: The company expanded its innovations with a full line of patented metal roof systems, further establishing its reputation for engineering excellence.
  • 1990s: OVERLY introduced a cutting-edge metal roof system with a battenless design, while also launching its fabrication of custom metal rainscreen systems using both plate and light-gauge metals.
