Benefits

Built for terraces and flat rooftops

Designed, fabricated and installed by one team from our Wembley workshop — so the detail you sign off is the detail that gets fitted.

The quickest lead time we offer

Standard product ships in 3–5 working days, and bespoke units in 14 working days — considerably faster than our other rooflight lines.

Rated for real use

Domestic loading of 1.5kN/m² UDL and 2.0kN concentrated; commercial loading of 4.0kN/m² UDL and 3.6kN concentrated.

Nothing in the way from below

The frameless internal design gives a 100% clear opening, so the room beneath sees glass, not frame.

Sits flush with your floor

Installed level with the external flooring, so the terrace stays a terrace with no trip hazard.

Safe underfoot in the wet

Anti-slip and obscured finishes are available for exposed or overlooked positions.

Thermally broken frame

Thermal aluminium frame powder coated Anthracite Grey RAL 7016 as standard.

How it works

Four steps from first call to finished installation

Design, supply, fabrication and installation are all handled in-house — you deal with one company throughout.

1

Design

A free site visit, measurements and consultation, followed by full technical drawings for sign-off before anything is cut.

2

Supply

We source the glass and UK-manufactured aluminium to the agreed specification, with every component checked on arrival.

3

Fabrication

Your unit is built in our own Wembley workshop, with welded (not bonded) aluminium frame corners for extra strength.

4

Installation

Our own installation team fits the unit and manages the project through to handover — no subcontracted crews.
