Another light
March 2017

KESTREL ALUMINIUM SYSTEMS has followed the launch of its Flat Rooflight with a Lantern Rooflight System.

The lantern rooflight has been designed without compound mitre cuts as a result of the fixed pitches, low line ridges and round edged glazing bars.The corner joints are performed with mechanical cleats with punch tooling to each of the corners.

Ian Osborne, Technical Manager explained “The jointing system makes site assembly possible meaning transportation and manual handling of the materials onto the roof become easier. Additionally we have designed the eaves profiles with a render stop, allowing internal finishes to be brought up to the underside of the lantern rooflight to provide a neat slick finish.

“The hip bars and glazing bars are supplied pre-machined to fit neatly against the eaves profiles. Only one square cut is required to achieve the correct bar length before the assembly of each hip/glazing bar reducing fabrication time.”
