Introducing an atrium or roof light is a fantastic way of creating more natural light and ventilation in a dull part of your home – stairways and kitchens are often areas where this introduction can really transform your living space.
An aluminium roof light also makes the perfect solution to an orangery roof. These areas are notoriously hard to get to, so are ideally suited to low maintenance aluminium.
As with any project, we will always start with a site visit to assess your situation and requirements before coming up with the best design solutions. Each design is bespoke and our designers can satisfy the demands of projects in either a traditional or contemporary style.
Your roof lights will be fully thermally broken and will be polyester powder coated in the colour of your choice. You can incorporate either manual or electric opening roof vents if necessary, with the option of fitted rain sensors for sudden downpours!
Portugese traders introduced the sweet orange to Europe in the 14th century and its name was translated from a Sanskrit word at about that time.
In order to supply royalty and aristocracy with its highly desirable fruit, orange trees were housed in specially constructed buildings that quickly became known as orangeries. These buildings soon evolved to house the growing collections of tender plants that were fast becoming popular.
Ideally orangeries should be south facing with a series of full-length windows set in a brick-built elevation. The rear north-facing wall should be thick to protect from cold and wind. A glazed roof adds even more light and ventilation to the space.
Aluminium is the perfect material for the orangery roof.
