Choose the movement first, then coordinate the dimensions, glazing and controls.
01 SLIDING SKYLIGHT
A glazed sash moves along structural tracks and overlaps an adjacent roof section. The layout can be coordinated around courtyards, stairwells and glazed extensions.
02 PARALLEL LIFT-UP SKYLIGHT
Synchronized lifting points raise the complete glazed lid to form a perimeter ventilation gap. A low roof profile is retained when the system is closed.
03 PREMIUM TOP-HUNG SKYLIGHT
A clean perimeter and an angled opening suit contemporary roof glazing. The sash rotates from its hinge line, with side actuators controlling the opening movement.
04 90-DEGREE TOP-HUNG SKYLIGHT
This roof-opening concept combines daylight with a large opening above a stairwell or lightwell. The upright sash and connected supports remain visible as a complete assembly.
05 VERTICAL-LIFT BALCONY WINDOW
The moving pane travels downward along side guides and overlaps the lower glazing. This arrangement creates an open upper bay without a swinging sash extending into the room.
Opening diagrams show movement only; they are not fabrication or installation drawings.
SKYLIGHTS & VERTICAL-LIFT WINDOWS / PRODUCT & PROJECT DETAILS
Five opening concepts. A coordinated approach to daylight, ventilation and views.
A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON EVERY OPENING.
From the roof above to the
facade in front, choose the
opening movement around
the space and the way it is
used.
SLIDING SKYLIGHT
Horizontal movement creates an open roof bay without an upward swinging sash.
PARALLEL LIFT-UP SKYLIGHT
The glazed lid rises vertically while remaining parallel to its roof base.
PREMIUM TOP-HUNG SKYLIGHT
One edge stays hinged while the opposite edge rises for roof ventilation.
90-DEGREE TOP-HUNG SKYLIGHT
A rear-hinged glazed sash opens to a near-vertical position above the roof curb.

GLAZING & SEALS
Select roof glazing, perimeter seals and frame drainage for the project exposure.
MOTOR & ACCESS
Confirm drive location, power route, control method and access for maintenance.
CONFIGURE IT FOR THE PROJECT
Allow room for the sash to park. The overall frame size and usable open area are different dimensions.
