Today, Glazing Vision celebrates its latest innovation and releases the Skydoor 2, a revolutionary new way of accessing your roof terrace, whatever its size.

Since our founding three decades ago in 1994, Glazing Vision has pioneered the transformation of architectural rooflights. Our journey began with the introduction of the groundbreaking Fixed Flushglaze rooflight – a first in the UK – and evolved with the creation of the industry’s first fully glazed, CE-approved AOV smoke ventilation rooflight. Today, we are proud to announce the latest milestone in our innovation legacy: the release of the new and improved Skydoor.

Innovative Design Meets Unparalleled Durability

The Skydoor 2 sets a new standard for roof access solutions, featuring advanced drive opening systems that replace the traditional folding arm mechanisms. This innovation not only facilitates smoother and clearer access to your rooftop but significantly extends the lifespan of your Skydoor to a minimum of ten years (with recommended servicing by Glazing Vision).

Safety and Design in Harmony

Equipped with a battery pack as standard, the Skydoor 2 ensures operational reliability even during power outages, meaning the rooflight can be safely closed using battery override offering peace of mind to dwelling occupants.
The sleek design conceals control electronics, mechanisms, and power supply within its framework, while the exterior and interior frameworks boast standard finishes in ‘RAL7015 Slate Grey’ and ‘RAL9010 White’, respectively.

Sustainability at Our Core

Our commitment to sustainability drives us towards achieving carbon neutrality and, eventually, carbon negativity. The Skydoor 2, made primarily from recyclable aluminium and glass, embodies this commitment. Its fully thermally broken frame and optional triple glazing enhance thermal efficiency, reducing reliance on artificial heating and contributing to energy conservation.

Certified Quality and Security

Manufactured to the highest standards, the Skydoor 2 is recognized by the Official Police Security Initiative, Secured By Design, and certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board.

Tailored to Your Needs

The Skydoor 2 is available in bespoke sizes and glass specifications, ensuring a perfect fit for any project. Our experienced Technical Specification Managers are on hand to discuss your requirements and introduce you to the unparalleled benefits of the new and improved Skydoor.
