Edgesky – Achieving the ‘Wow’ effect

Edgesky™ rooflights have been immensely popular in the last few years. Many of our clients have remarked on the huge improvements that our rooflights bring to projects, not to mention the ease of installation and low maintenance benefits that these products bring. But how do the Edgesky™ products create that ‘wow’ factor, both practically and aesthetically?

Let us explain…

The Edgesky™ Lantern

Our Lantern Rooflight is a stylishly versatile roof glazing solution which looks at home in both traditional and modern settings. The slim roof bars, only 57mm wide, are a big attraction to builders and developers who are trying to achieve a sleek finish for their clients.

The perfectly proportioned Edgesky™ Lantern has a subtle ogee detail on its bars which, when coupled with the fully concealed fixings, creates a clean and classic appeal. Lantern rooflights just look good, from inside and out.

Practical choice

The attention to detail in the manufacturing process makes our lanterns the best choice by far. From bespoke weather seals to innovative glass locks, these lanterns are equipped with great features to enable a quick and easy installation.

Additional ‘wow’ factors

With Edgesky there is also the option to add finials to your roof lantern. These are especially popular in the more traditional projects; due to the period style they offer. Here is an example from one of our installations.

Another option available is to add more bars to your rooflight, which further aids the development of the traditional orangery style in a project.

The Edgesky™ Flat Glass Rooflight

Our minimalist flat glass rooflight is perfect for the more modern projects, although its simplicity makes it incredibly versatile.

This well-designed product has hidden fixings and minimal sightlines, to allow maximum light into the room – enhancing the interiors within.

Practical choice

The quality materials and manufacturing processes of the Flat Glass Rooflight, allow it to achieve an overall U Value of 1.3 w/m2k due to its laminated and shatter-proof triple glazing which comes as standard.

Like the lantern, the flat rooflight also boasts an incredibly simple installation, with hidden strap fixing, an internal plasterboard pocket for easy boarding and plastering.

Additional ‘wow’ factors

An extra option is to have your flat glass rooflight made with an electric opener, which acts a little like a Velux roof window, bringing fresh air into the room beneath.

Another choice available is to have a multi-pane flat glass rooflight, this widens your view of the sky, and brings in the maximum natural light.

Ambi-blue glass

Edgesky™ rooflights come with ambi-blue glazing as standard. This ambience glass is self-cleaning and has a U value of 1.2W/m2k. It also provides 60% solar heat reflection, ensuring the room stays at a comfortable temperature all year round.  We do have other ambience glass options, such as aqua, ultra, sunshade blue, bronze and neutral – these all have their own benefits with regards to sunlight, warmth and colouring and ensure that there is a glazing option to suit every project!

Don’t just take our word for it!
Here is what our clients say:

“…Edge building products came to the rescue as usual with their product and superb professional attitude, and a cutting edge simple modern aluminium roof… …super easy to install and glaze, and the finished product was clean and slim.

“Amazing product – really impressed. Looks incredibly smart – just the product I needed and just the product I will ever get from now on…” Housebuilder, Chichester

“We are extremely pleased with the roof light, a lot of effort must have gone into the minimalistic design and ‘timber look’ finish, which is very pleasing to the eye. Very easy to piece together and fit, altogether a great product!” Developer, Arundel
