Bespoke ridge rooflights

Light from both sides, straight down the spine of your roof

A ridge rooflight sits over the apex of a pitched roof with glass on both sides, cascading daylight into the room below through an all-but-invisible frame.

Benefits

What a ridge rooflight gives you

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

Twice the daylight

Glazing on both pitches means light enters from two directions and reaches deeper into the room through the day.

Frame you don't notice

The detailing is deliberately minimal, so the eye reads sky rather than aluminium.

Made for your ridge

Every unit is set out to the exact pitch, length and span of your roof.

Safety as standard

Low-e toughened PVB laminated inner pane on every unit, in 9.5mm or 13.5mm.

Thermally sensible

Argon-filled cavity and low-e coating help keep a high, glazed space comfortable.

Fitted by the people who made it

Our own installers handle the roof works and manage the project through to completion.

Lead times and larger bespoke sizes

Standard rooflights: approximately 2–3 weeks. Walk-on glass: approximately 3–4 weeks. Large or jumbo rooflights: approximately 5–6 weeks. Examples of larger bespoke sizes include 3000 × 2000mm, 3000 × 3000mm, 3000 × 5900mm. Large and jumbo rooflights are assessed individually because lead time depends on the overall dimensions, glass specification, weight, number of panels, framing system and installation requirements. Lead times begin once final measurements, specification and deposit are confirmed. We’ll confirm the delivery or installation date with your quotation.
