Glazed Roofs

Overview

Peak glazed roof options offer a proven, cost effective solution for a variety of applications. Developed to provide a high quality answer to many fenestration requirements, it offers total flexibility in specification.

Appearance

The glazed roof’s can be either single or double glazed for improved thermal and acoustic performance.

The systems offer a range of rafter depths to cater for differing structural conditions. A range of window inserts are available as well as a range of external caps to vary the finished appearance.
Construction

Our glazed roof options consist of either a box or a box and plate format for factory frame assembly using mechanical methods at butt joints. Assembly uses stainless steel or plated self tapping screws into either cleat blocks or integral screw ports extruded into the body of the sections, directly through square cut adjoining component parts.

Rafter sections are designed to run through. This enables individual panels to be made separately, easing the problems associated with handling and transporting large or multi-panel frames when fully assembled. The system may be glazed using dual gaskets or a combination of tape and gasket to suit individual performance requirements.

Performance

Our glazed roof products are thermally broken and compartment drained which offer performance characteristics in line with the highest requirements of the industry.
