The video below shows a custom sliding skylight in 3 sections; the center section slides over a fixed pane of glass for ventilation. This project was situated in Aspen, Colorado, and was rigorously tested to meet the weather conditions and performance requirements at altitude.
Skylights have moved way beyond their original function, so much so that the term ‘skylight’ sometimes doesn’t do the product justice. We have designed faceted glass systems that are heated to reduce condensation over swimming pools, sliding ridge skylights that can retract along the apex of your roof, integrated hinged access skylights into larger sections of fixed glazing to provide enormous amounts of natural daylight and access within one feature. One-off skybox configurations with increased glass strength for snow load, solar-controlled glass arrangements, and the list goes on.
If you have a glass skylight concept in mind, the first step is to contact our Technical Specification team. They can offer advice and help shape your scheme so that it can be delivered to specification and on budget.
