Add an Elegant Touch to Your Next Project
Bring more daylight and fresh air into your space without giving up valuable roof area. The Sliding Over Fixed Skylight combines a fixed pane with a retractable pane that glides smoothly over it, creating a generous glazed area overhead while giving you the flexibility to open your space to the outdoors.
When closed, the combination maximizes the amount of glazing above, helping interiors feel brighter, more open and connected to the sky. When open, natural ventilation and fresh air can transform the atmosphere of the room, giving you greater control over how the space feels throughout the day.
Ideal where roof space is limited, the Sliding Over Fixed design requires no additional roof tracks or fixtures, the sliding pane simply moves over the fixed pane. This allows you to achieve a substantial glazed area without sacrificing valuable roof space.
Primarily designed to enhance daylight and ventilation, the skylight can also provide access where suitable balustrades are installed. Building Control should always be consulted before undertaking any works.
Maximize the light above, open up to fresh air and make more of the space you have.
