Turn Your Ceiling Into an Open Sky
Open up your ceiling to the sky at the touch of a button. The Glazing Vision Sliding Over Roof Skylight transforms a room from an enclosed interior into an open, light-filled space, allowing the entire glazed section to retract onto the roof and revealing expansive, unobstructed views above.
When closed, the skylight maximizes the amount of glass to create an almost frameless appearance, flooding the room with natural daylight and maintaining a strong connection to the outdoors. When opened, fresh air and changing light create a space that can feel completely different from one moment to the next.
The sliding section is supported by tracks installed on the roof when open, while larger glazing requirements can be accommodated through custom engineering. Custom versions may incorporate discreet aluminum angles or structural glass fins to achieve the required span without compromising the architectural vision.
Open your ceiling to the sky and transform the way your space connects with the outdoors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Glazing Vision Skylights can be connected to your Home Automation System. Our skylights also boast numerous smart features such as rain sensor connectivity, thermostat connectivity, and more.
Glazing Vision provides a rain sensor as an optional extra which allows the skylight to automatically close when rain is detected, allowing your home interior to be protected from the elements.
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.
