Product details

  • In short

    Dome Rooflights are provided as single units, which can be installed individually or in groups to fill an interior with natural light and create an attractive design feature. Square and rectangular units with domes are popular options, but a variety of other shapes and sizes are available. Choose from a range of glazing options to suit both practical and aesthetic requirements.

    Our rooflights are easy to install. They can be fixed directly to the roof or an existing upstand for maximum weatherproofing and fast closure of the building envelope. Interchangeable kerbs simplify installation and ensure a good fit, and they are suitable for use with all standard roofing membrane systems.

    Dome Rooflights are provided with a 20-year warranty, and experts can offer support throughout design, specification and installation.

  • Product details

    Dome rooflights are suitable for use with all popular types of roofing membrane and can be used on flat roofs and roofs with pitches of up to 15˚  

    We offer a suite of interchangeable and interlocking kerbs, with options including vertical, splayed and adaptor kerbs to suit any upstand or depth of insulation on the roof. They can be manufactured from extruded  PVCu, thermally broken aluminium or aluminium for unheated areas. 
    This system eradicates the need to construct metal frames, or timber grounds on-site and the vertical riser sections can accommodate both flat board and tapered insulation, resulting in a completely bespoke kerb height.
