Somehow, I have in my head “4” because 4 is wrong would it be 6?
Asphalt shingles installed as siding require __________ nails or staples per shingle.
When installing asphalt shingles as siding, it is typically recommended to use four nails or staples per shingle. Proper fastening is crucial to ensure the durability and weather resistance of the shingle siding.
While four is a standard, some regions with severe weather may require additional fastening, and manufacturer recommendations and local building codes should always be followed to ensure a proper and safe installation

Class 4 composition shingles require 6 nails.
Has anyone found a manufacturer that has installation guidelines for this application?
I find it to be an odd question if the manufacturer does not recommend the shingle used as siding.
Yeah, we didn’t come up with much 15years ago.
