Why Choose A Sliding Rooflight Instead Of An Access Hatch?

Access hatches are for occasional maintenance access, whereas a sliding rooflight can allow full stairs below the rooflight giving you regular hassle free access onto you roof terrace.

This is particularly beneficial for those living in cities who have no garden or are unlikely to have access to one. As well as providing a means to access previously unutilised space creating a roof terrace or roof garden, especially as a green space can improve your quality of life.

Sliding Rooflights are suitable for all nominally flat roof constructions and coverings e.g. Single Ply PVC, Fiberglass, lead, copper, zinc and other standing seams and asphaltic material (they are also suitable for Green / Sedum Roofs).

Sliding Rooflight Options

In the UK staircases have a maximum pitch of 42°, so that you can climb them comfortably upright without needing to lean back or crouch forward, a Next Generation Sliding Rooflight opens easily to 42°, this means that you can ascend and descend, carrying food and drink or a small child.

In our clients words:

We recently had the pleasure of working with Next Generation Rooflights on the design, manufacture and installation of a large bespoke mono pitch atrium rooflight. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. The rooflight itself was perfectly tailored to our specifications and enhances the natural light in the space beautifully. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship is evident, and we have received numerous compliments on the stunning design. We were particularly impressed with the team's commitment to meeting our deadlines and their ability to navigate the complexities of the project with ease. Their communication was clear and consistent, ensuring that we were always informed and confident in the progress. Overall, we couldn't be happier with the result and highly recommend Next Generation Rooflights for any rooflight installations. Their dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly commendable.
