Open Up Your Roof To The Outdoors
The Glazing Vision Sliding Over Roof Skylight does exactly what you would expect; the entire section of glazing retracts out onto your roof space, leaving you with open, unimpeded views of the sky above. When closed, the amount of glass is maximized in order to maintain an almost frameless appearance, allowing you to feel connected to the nature outside.
Sliding skylights add something special to a room, especially when you can open up almost the entire ceiling space to the outdoors, delivering a constantly changing environment within your building at the touch of a button. When opened, the weight of the sliding section is supported by tracks installed on the roof.
For larger glazing requirements, Glazing Vision can design and manufacture a custom version of the Sliding Over Roof, which may require internal supports such as aluminum angles or glass fins.

No, you can not order just the glass from us as we assemble the entire skylight unit in our in house factory to ensure a high level of quality.
If your roof space is restricted, we recommend specifying a Sliding Over Fixed Skylight as they, unlike the Sliding Over Roof Skylight, do not require tracks to be installed on the roof.
Lead times vary per product as they are carefully assembled and tested in-house, but your local Technical Sales Manager can advise you of our latest lead times.
