Sliding Over Roof Rooflight
Our Sliding Over Roof unit does exactly what you’d expect; the entire section of glazing retracts out onto your roof space, leaving you with open, unimpeded views of the sky above. When closed, the amount of glass is maximised in order to maintain an almost frameless appearance. For larger projects we can design and manufacture a custom version of the Sliding Over Roof, which may require internal supports such as aluminium angles or glass fins.
When opened, the weight of the sliding section is supported by tracks installed on the roof, so you will need space to achieve this dramatic effect on your building. If you are limited on roof space, we recommend our Sliding Over Fixed rooflight, which combines a sliding element with a fixed one, and requires no extra space on the roof other than it’s original footprint.
Sliding skylights add something special to a room, especially when you can open up almost the entire ceiling space to the outdoors, delivering a constantly changing environment within your building at the touch of a button.
Flat sliding rooflights can only be used for access if suitable balustrades are installed, Glazing Vision strongly recommends seeking guidance from building control before commencing works on site.
