Velux flat glass skylights

VELUX fixed skylights are fixed VELUX flat roof windows which are the best choice for a low pitch roof where ventilation isn’t a consideration for the window. If ventilation isn’t a requirement for install, choosing a fixed skylight can keep costs down and they tend to offer more security than opening skylights in some installation areas. For example, a flat roof that can be easily accessed by a ladder that’s surrounded by high trees or walls could be a prime target for criminals. A fixed shut skylight makes entry much harder than a skylight with an opening mechanism. Aside from the security benefits, VELUX flat roof windows are double glazed as standard and offer u-values of 1.2 W/m2K to make sure the roof they’re installed in is continually insulated. These fixed flat roof skylights won’t impact the energy efficiency of your build. VELUX fixed skylights are also well-insulated from noise from the outside and from rain and hail too. VELUX fixed skylights are designed for 0-15° roof pitches and each comes with a 150mm kerb so all the components for successful and speedy installation are delivered together. Opt for a clear dome for views up and out of the skylight, or opt for an opaque dome where the room below the window would benefit from privacy.
