Commercial & industrial rooflights in Irvine: what is involved?
Thinking about commercial & industrial rooflights in Irvine? The short answer: rooflights for warehouses, schools, offices and retail units. The longer answer depends on your roof, which is why we survey before we price.
Scottish weather is hard on roofs, so we specify rooflights and roof windows with exposure in mind and fit upstands with generous heights. Typical uses for commercial & industrial rooflights include industrial roofs with tired or fragile rooflight sheets.
Jobs in Irvine are planned around access: whether the roof can be reached from the garden, whether a hoist or crane is needed, and where we can park. We check this when we measure.
Options we can specify in Irvine
- Polycarbonate domes
- Mesh or grilles under fragile areas
- Smoke and natural ventilation vents
- GRP or polycarbonate in-plane rooflight sheets
- Continuous barrel-vault rooflights
- Planned around working sites
- Smoke-vent options where needed
Before you order: points to check
- Non-fragility classification should be confirmed for new products
- Fire performance of rooflight materials matters near boundaries
