All VELUX roof windows are available in a wide range of sizes, with multiple finishes and glazing options available to suit every budget and design. There is also a choice of operation methods, including manual, electric and solar powered windows.
VELUX centre pivot windows are a popular choice as they suit any room with a pitched roof, opening from the centre to bring in light and air, while being easy to maintain. Top hung VELUX windows open from the bottom outwards, making them more suited to rooms with less space and windows at eye level, providing a fantastic view. An additional option for older buildings in conservation areas are conservation windows, which are designed to fit into their existing surroundings and structure.
