LEADING UK ROOF WINDOW SUPPLIERS

Click here for an easy-to-use listing of leading UK suppliers of roof windows, provided by Archbone.

Roof windows, sometimes known as rooflights or skylights, are glazed openings in roofs. They can take the form of a simple flat window, or more elaborate structures such as lanterns, barrel lights or dome lights. A dome light is a semicircle of plastic or cast glass, in one piece.

Velux is a leading manufacturer of roof windows. It has an excellent reputation of product quality, based on the use of carefully selected and well treated Nordic pine for the roof windows and frames. The Nordic pine is sheathed in a grey-coloured aluminium, so that the rooflight blends into the roof when viewed from the outside. Electric operation is available, provided with remote control. The Velux roof windows are normally pivoted at the centre. This enables the roof window to be swung right round, and locked in postion, so that the outer glass surface can be cleaned from inside the building. Ventilation slots, containing a wire mesh to keep insects out, are fitted at the top of each roof window.
