Products details

  • In short
    A Longlight solution is a single row of modules that lights up hallways, corridors and large rooms with natural daylight. Multiple rows of Longlights form an ideal glass roof for large open areas, e.g. atriums. 
    Install the Longlights to follow the interior floor plan to optimise daylight and ventilation in every corner of the room. The modular Longlights allow fast and easy closure of the roof to reduce cost and speed up the interior works. VELUX modular skylights are delivered with a 10-year guarantee on modules and flashings.

    VELUX skylight specialists offer support throughout design, specification and installation, including design of the sub-construction needed for installation. 
    Please note that sub-constructions are not included in the VELUX delivery.

  • Details

    VELUX modular skylight system is a turnkey solution comprising prefabricated skylight modules with dedicated claddings, flashings and vapour barrier connection strip to allow for design of watertight rooflight and glass roof structures.

    Comfort ventilation is possible via an integrated chain actuator that can be controlled with VELUX INTEGRA® system or with your preferred building management system. Smoke ventilation can only be controlled with your preferred building management system.

    For optimal daylight and heat control consider internal roller blinds that can be pre-mounted from the factory.
