STEREN 221-110 Non-Penetrating Roof Mounting System: The Ultimate Solution for Safe and Secure Installation of Antennas, Satellites, and Surveillance Equipment on Residential and Commercial Rooftops

This mount might be unsightly for some folks, but I like how it allows to to securely install an antenna to your roof without drilling into it. I bought this because I knew the heavy tree coverage around my house would make it difficult to find a strong signal and that I would be required to move the antenna around to different locations on my roof. Once I found that sweet spot, I just loaded six concrete blocks onto it and was done! Sure enough, the spot where i got the best signal was also a spot where I just wasn't comfortable drilling or screwing into and this mount allowed me to install the antenna anyways. I installed a J-mount to it and the holes all lined up just fine.

The unit is constructed well and finished with a nice thick coat of paint that didn’t chip easily when I was installing it. There were zero sharp edges. I added a couple of holes and attached a Starlink pole mount to the center, because that mount keeps the dish closer to the roof and reduces wind loading. In 25 mph winds (40 kph), the dish moves because the center of the Steren flexes. It needs to be a thicker gauge steel, but realistically three point contact is called for, e.g. a J-mount with two leg braces from DirectTV. I didn’t go that route because there’s no place to attach the leg braces on the Steren. Thick concrete pavers might be the answer, into which I can drill for Tapcon anchors.

This worked great for me. I used 6 cap concrete blocks to hold it down, and one of the protective mats to keep it from sliding or damaging my shingles. It had the correct holes for my dish network satellite mast and all the hardware I needed.It also blends a little better than I thought it would... from out in the back yard, it's not very noticeable that it's not a normal dish mount at all.

I don't understand why someone would want a non penetrating mount. Are there more pictures?

The mount lacks holes in the proper locations to mount the foot of one of the most common DirecTV dishes; the AT/AU9 dish. In fact, the middle mounting surface isn't even wide enough for the entire foot of the dish to sit on. You can choose the left or right side of the pipe mast to screw down, but you won't be able to screw down both sides; one side will not be sitting on the mount. I had to drill holes to do so as when you use one of the existing holes, none of the others will line up with the holes on the foot of the pipe mast. Also, the metal is not of a heavy enough gauge that it doesn't slightly flex when the dish is touched, so I worry that wind will cause the dish to move, although it seems that it would take a lot of wind to make a major swing of the dish and loss of signal.Bottom line, it can be made to work, but I wish that the mounting surface was wide enough for the entire foot of the mast to sit on it. I also wish that the metal was a heavier gauge, but it can be made to work. I should note that you CAN take the pipe off of the foot and attach it to the large square hole, but then the pipe will not be supported as well as if you just go ahead and use the mast foot.

great for roofs you do not want to drill into, since it has a place to put weights in the frame there is very little chance that the antenna will move. I put one brace on the upright pole attached to the roof siding, so there is no chance of it moving , I am in a windy area of California I don't know how it would work in the mid-west?

Works perfectly with the Dish satellite. Sturdy and came with nuts and bolts, which is the reason I chose this brand over the other similar roof mount. I also used flat stone pavers instead of the square cinderblock to keep it low profile. Works great.

Holes did not line up, had to drill additional.
