Secure by Design - Building regulations Part Q compliant solution available, please call: 0116 2610 710Our high-performance opening rooflights are available with manual or by electric control.
Manually opening roof windows are fitted with a chrome screwjack, which is operated using a separate winding pole.
Electrically controlled opening skylights are opened by 24v electric actuators. Actuators open the rooflight to a maximum of 300mm and can be concealed within a complementary framework if required. The electric actuator is controlled by a touch-sensitive switch with an in-built transformer (see technical section below), simplifying the electrical wiring connections. Our switch fits neatly into a standard double gang back box.
We provide a range of optional extras include:
Duplus flat opening rooflights are double glazed in clear toughened safety glass as standard.
We offer a range of tints:
We also offer an obscure finish for privacy or high-performance solar control to minimise solar gain (g) and maximise light transmittance (Lt).

No, you cannot use the hinged rooflight for access. This is because the limitation of the opening has a maximum of 300mm. We do provide a range of rooflights that can be used for access purposes. View our sliding rooflights or bi-parting sliding rooflights.

The cost of a rain sensor sensor for an opening rooflight is £395+VAT. The controls are separate. The rain sensor is connected to a control panel, which links to the motor in the rooflight. This is operated by a 'rocker switch'.
The glass will depend on the size but as a minimum will be double glazed in 4mm toughened and heatsoaked glass. The height of the frame is 115mm above the top of the upstand.
Our rooflights achieve outstanding thermal performance. True U-value and Ud-value available upon request.
The extruded thermally broken aluminium perimeter frame is powder-coated RAL 7016 dark grey matt externally and RAL 9910 white matt internally as standard. Other RAL colour options are available upon request.
Our opening rooflight is easy to install. An internal perimeter gasket allows the skylight to be placed directly on top of the builder’s kerb without the need for site applied silicone. It is then screwed to the builder’s kerb externally and a matching cover clip is then applied to conceal the fixings. A qualified electrician will be required to make the final connections to the actuator and the control system. Wiring diagrams are provided with all opening rooflights.
As standard, all double glazed units incorporate clear low ‘E’ glass achieving a centre pane U-value of 1.1 W/m²K.
Delivered FULLY ASSEMBLED. No need for time-consuming assembly on-site. Significantly higher security compared to kit systems.
Also available as a Secure by Design (Part Q) enhanced security variant.
