The view above your terrace

Consider the roof from inside as well as outside

A roof near the house becomes part of the outlook from your rooms. Share photographs from the interior alongside the outdoor area so the team can consider the whole relationship.

Discuss how much of the roof you would like to open, where the moving sections will sit and which operating arrangement you prefer. The final answers depend on the selected glass-roof system.

Manual or motorised

Choose the opening arrangement deliberately

Think about how often you expect to operate the roof and who will use it. Ask the team to explain the available manual and motorised arrangements, rather than assuming a particular opening percentage or control package.

Discuss the details with our team

Operating arrangement

Compare the listed manual and motorised directions with the project requirements.

Glass specification

Request the exact glass type and system specification for the quotation.

Technical coordination

Confirm roof support, drainage and any power preparation with the installation team.
