the needs of the modern home using environmentally friendly materials

Eaves Corner Jointing
bringing light into living
Corner joints are performed with mechanical cleats which
with the aid of punch tooling provide a strong, neat and
secure joint to each of the corners of the lantern rooflight.
The jointing system makes site assembly possible meaning
transportation and manual handling of the materials onto
the roof become easier.
Render Stop
The eaves profile has been designed with a render stop,
allowing internal finishes to be brought up to the underside
of the lantern rooflight providing a neat slick finish. By
increasing the glazing area it creates a lighter feel to the
lantern rooflight from inside.
Profile Cut Outs
The hip bars and glazing bars are supplied pre-machined
to fit neatly against the eaves profiles. This means that
the fabricator only has one square cut to achieve the
correct bar length before assembling each hip/glazing bar
subsequently cutting down on fabrication time.
