VELUX Modular Skylights – Structural Skylights

Prefabricated modular skylights – your shortcut to beautiful daylight solutions

Designed to provide daylight and fresh air through the roof, our modular skylights help create healthy, comfortable and productive indoor spaces. Our modular system can be configured to a range of different skylight solutions and offers several features for climate control, ventilation and shading.

Modular Skylight Solutions

We offer cost-competitive options for commercial designers and builders who want the streamlined elegance, durability and near-perfect transparency of glass.

Modularity

The modular system – from a single module to a highly scalable skylight solution


VELUX modular skylights deliver all the benefits of modularity to rooflights and glazing. From glass quality to power motors and integrated blinds, the skylight modules are designed to work as one single system from the moment they’re made.

THE MODULE

All modules are produced offsite at our factory, meaning every single component is rigorously tested and integrated in a controlled environment. Each component is also of the highest premium quality and is built to stand the test of time.

All prefabricated modules are CE marked and delivered with customised flashings and integrated insulation.

THE SYSTEM

The modules fit perfectly together to create a seamless watertight system – a glass roof that lets in plenty of daylight.

Every skylight solution is configured from the same standard module and follows the same fast installation process, enabling you to seal the roof quicker against adverse weather conditions and get on with the internal build.

In our quality-controlled facilities, we monitor all aspects of production to ensure a perfect fit, and the result is our watertight, airtight, durable modular skylights.

THE SOLUTION

The versatile skylight system allows you to create a range of different designs for a variety of commercial buildings such as shopping malls, offices, cultural buildings, public spaces and healthcare buildings.

All modular skylight configurations are based on the same single module and the same basic installation process. You don’t need to specify different modules for different solutions.

3. Motorized smoke venting skylight module opens up to 700mm in less than 60 seconds 
VELUX modular skylights require the following minimum and maximum measurements:
  • Module width: 675-1000 mm
  • Module height: 600-3000 mm
SIZES

See size possibilities for fixed, comfort and smoke venting modules.
Go to Size grid

Venting skylight modules have a recommended minimum installation height of 2.5 m above floor level (inside) and ground level (outside).
In case of installation below that level, safety measures must be applied by the installer/user to prevent serious injury.

 

Details
VELUX modular skylight system is a turnkey solution comprising prefabricated skylight modules with dedicated claddings, flashings and vapour barrier connection strip to allow for design of watertight rooflight and glass roof structures.

Comfort ventilation is possible via an integrated chain actuator that can be controlled with VELUX INTEGRA® system or with your preferred building management system. Smoke ventilation can only be controlled with your preferred building management system.

For optimal daylight and heat control consider internal roller blinds that can be pre-mounted from the factory.

Pre-fabricated modular skylights from VELUX come with perfectly matching cladding, flashing and roller blinds.

Glazing

Get CAD/BIM objects for all major software platforms and find the right specification, product details and material information.

All glazing units come with step glass on the outer side to ensure water tightness (class E1200, EN 12208:2000).  
Performance

The VELUX modular skylight profiles (sash and frame) are made of pultruded fiberglass (80%) and polyurethane composite (20%). The composite material provides high insulation performance and thermal stability as well as excellent profile stiffness and bending strength.

Due to the concept of prefabrication, we are able to test our products extensively against all thinkable hazards and stressful events. Tests are performed in controlled environments in accordance with harmonized standards for both Windows and doors and for Smoke and Heat control systems.

In combination with low energy glazing units, the modular skyligths are able to achieve one of the lowest overall U-values for frame and glazing assembly in the skylight market (Uw values down to 0.86 W(m2/K)).  
Additional Solutions

Wall-mounted Longlights are a versatile solution that can be used in many different building projects.

Wall-mounted Longlights can also be installed with a sloped roof as a base and a vertical wall at the top of the module.
