Abstract:
A kick out flashing includes a base for placement adjacent a roof, a sidewall for placement adjacent a wall by the roof, a first kick out wall angled away from the sidewall, an intermediate wall joined with the first kick out wall, distal from and optionally parallel to the sidewall, and a second kick out wall angled away from the intermediate wall, the second kick out wall distal from the sidewall and downstream from the first kick out wall. The sidewall, intermediate wall and a bottom wall can form a channel that receives a J channel or other wall covering. The first kick out wall can prevent water from traveling directly under the bottom wall and/or the channel, diverting it away from the sidewall. The second kick out wall can further divert water away from the channel and/or sidewall.

Claim (Index 10):
A kick out flashing comprising:\n a base configured to be placed adjacent a structural roof deck, the base including an upstream end and a downstream end; a sidewall configured to be placed adjacent a structural wall that is angled relative to the structural roof deck; a first kick out wall joined with the sidewall; an intermediate wall joined with the first kick out wall, distal from the sidewall; and a second kick out wall joined with the intermediate wall, the second kick out wall distal from the sidewall, wherein the first kick out wall is closer to the upstream end than the downstream end, wherein the second kick out wall is closer to the downstream end than the upstream end, wherein the intermediate wall and the sidewall and a bottom wall define a channel, the channel configured to receive a siding J channel, whereby the first kick out wall diverges water a first distance away from the sidewall, and the second kick out wall diverges water a second distance away from the sidewall when water travels toward the downstream end generally over the kick out flashing.
