OVERVIEW
The owners of this large, Detached property wanted to install some type of glazed solution to allow natural light into their stunning new refurbished home.
After discussing the options of how to allow natural light to flow in with the Client and the Architect, they decided that the best choice would be our MFP Fixed & Automated Flat Roof light systems.
Our industry-leading Roof light system is manufactured in the UK. For our projects, We used for the fixed units Triple glazed units so that we could offer security and an overall U-value that meets & exceeds current building regulations we also applied a solar control finish to the glass so that for in the summer months, it helps to keep the rooms cooler and, in the winter, helps retain the heat inside the property.
The bespoke Automated Roof lights have the same glass specification as the fixed roof lights, yet they can be opened by a hard-wired wall switch or by a key fob giving you flexibility in how to open the roof lights.
Over the complete roof of the property, we installed twelve roof lights, six fixed and six automated, from above, they all look the same, so the profile and the internal look all match.
Once the internal finishes are completed it will give you a frameless look.
A feature of the automated roof lights is that as a default factory setting, they open to 300mm so that it's enough for airflow and ventilation, yet also bearing in mind security also.
Out of the six automated roof lights, there is one that allows roof access which opens to 90 degrees for any maintenance works if required.
