Our self supporting Skyline Box, Skyline and Heritage Skylights can be supplied in Hipped, Gable and Polygonal formats including optional glazed vertical upstand frames to create a 'Lantern' type skylight.
Our skylights
incorporate structural aluminium ridge/hip and cill members and are secured to a suitably weathered and finished flat topped structural upstand curb.
The finished curb must be supplied at least 100mm wide to accommodate our cill member. We manufacture to 5° increments from 15-45° pitch and any size from 1500mm to 6000mm in width. These skylights can be supplied in any length required.

Our self supporting skylights are a versatlie range avaialable incorporating our Skyline Box, Skyline and Heritage type Patent Glazing bars.
They are mostly supplied in a double glazed format but are also available in single and triple glazed formats to suit your requirements.
The structural kerbs (provided by the Main Contractor), which our skylights are attached to, should be designed by the structural engineer to accommodate all lateral loadings imposed by the skylight (approx. 340 N/m²). If the kerbs have insufficient strength to resist 'spreading', which is usually the case, then the use of our integral stainless steel tie wires at approx. 3 metre centres along the ridge line becomes a requirement to prevent any spreading of the structural kerbs.
stainless steel tie wires are supplied at approx. 3 metre intervals along the ridge line to prevent lateral movement of the structural builders kerb.
