Puff Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 I'm probably been dumb here but I'm generally not too bad on google searches but... I want a sloping roof window that doesn't open. The old roof on my barn conversion was box section tin and over the garage part they had clear plastic box section, which obviously let in a reasonable amount of light. I'm keeping the garage/man cave and just re-roofing with slate (new rafters etc etc) and I essentially want to have some natural light but I sure as heck can't get up 15ft to open and it doesn't need to. All I can seem to find are normal opening velux types or flat roof windows, which as the name implies won't go on slopes.. Can someone point me in the right direction please?!

I can see some but b-me that's not cheap still. Only really after some light, doesn't need to be double glazed. I'm guessing there's not an easy way of DIY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
