Aluminum Skylight Windows

Roof-mounted glazing that brings overhead natural light into stairwells, attics and living spaces — fixed for pure daylighting, or vented for stack-effect ventilation. Engineered with safety glazing and a weathertight upstand as standard.

What is a Skylight Window?

A skylight is a window built into a roof or ceiling rather than a wall, letting daylight into spaces that don't have exterior wall access — stairwells, attics, bathrooms and deep interior rooms. It can be fixed for pure daylighting, or vented so warm air can escape upward through the stack effect.

BOYCE's skylight systems are built on an aluminum upstand (kerb) with continuous weatherstripping and a drainage channel, so the single most exposed window in the building stays weathertight through every season.

From a single fixed panel to a motorized ventilation bank, we configure skylight systems around your roof pitch and daylighting goals.

Skylight Window Specification

03 / SPECIFICATION

Profile Thickness 2.0mm–2.5mm (upstand/kerb)
Opening Type Fixed, spindle-vented, or motorized chain-driven
Roof Pitch Range 0° (flat) to 45°, custom pitches on request
Kerb Type Insulated aluminum upstand, factory-sealed
Locking Key-locking spindle on vented units
Roof, Flashing and Glass Interfaces Approved Roof & Glazing Details
Skylight installation requires coordinated roof pitch, kerb construction, flashing details, overhead safety glazing, drainage and maintenance access. Roof and glazing interfaces must be confirmed through approved project drawings before manufacturing and installation.
Kerb & Flashing Junctions Upstand, Membrane, Fixings
Specify kerb height, construction, insulation, fixing method and connection to the roof waterproofing membrane. Confirm head, side and lower flashing details, including water-shedding laps and compatibility with the roofing system.
Roof Installation and Maintenance Coordination Site Verification, Flashing & Maintenance

Before installation, the designated roofing contractor or site surveyor must verify roof pitch, opening dimensions, structural support, kerb height and waterproofing conditions. Approved drawings should identify skylight fixings, flashing laps, membrane connections, glass support and drainage paths.

The project glazing and roofing teams must confirm overhead glass safety requirements, weatherproofing and safe maintenance access. BoyceCasa coordinates skylight manufacturing against approved specifications and shop drawings; roof waterproofing, on-site installation and ongoing maintenance responsibilities follow the agreed project scope.

Skylight | Safety-Rated Glazing

Laminated safety glass is standard on every skylight — if the outer pane is compromised, the inner layer holds together instead of falling into the room below.

Skylight | Weathertight Upstand

An insulated aluminum kerb with a continuous drainage channel keeps the roof’s most exposed opening sealed through every season.

Skylight | Spindle or Motorized Operation

Choose a manual brass spindle for occasional use, or an electric chain motor with rain sensor for skylights that are hard to reach.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aluminum Skylight Windows

What are the advantages of aluminum skylight windows?
+
Natural light reaches rooms with no exterior wall access, vented units use the stack effect to exhaust hot air, and laminated safety glass reduces the risk of overhead breakage — all backed by a weathertight, insulated aluminum kerb.
What are the drawbacks of skylights?
+
Without a solar control coating, a poorly specified skylight can add significant summer heat gain. We recommend Low-E or solar control glass on every unit, and can advise on placement to avoid unwanted glare or overheating.
Is safety glass required for skylights?
+
Yes — we use laminated glass as standard on every skylight, since an overhead pane carries higher risk than a vertical window. This is not an optional upgrade in our specification.
How much do aluminum skylight windows cost?
+
Pricing depends on size, roof pitch, glass coating and whether the unit is fixed, spindle-vented or motorized. Send your roof plan and we'll return an itemized quote — not a lump-sum estimate — within 24 hours.
Can a skylight be motorized and remote-controlled?
+
Yes — our motorized units use a chain-driven electric operator, and can include a rain sensor that closes the vent automatically, which is particularly useful for skylights installed out of easy reach.
