Ply Gem designed its Georgia-Pacific brand Compass panels for BlueLinx with a reverse full-roll double nail hem and four-point attachment locking system in order for the .044-inch-thick panels to resist winds of up to 222 mph. The siding features a wood-grain emboss and low-gloss finish as well as 5/8-inch reversed butt angles to secure overlaps and hide most seams. Georgia-Pacific, www.gpvinylsiding.com; 800.284.5347.
