Glazed Roof Hatches

Glazed roof hatches combine roof access with natural daylight. Instead of a solid lid, they use a glazed panel or rooflight, letting light into the building while still giving safe access to the roof.

Closed, the hatch works like a rooflight; opened, it's an access point for roof maintenance, inspections or servicing rooftop equipment. They're part of our wider roof hatch range.

Access and daylight in one
A glazed roof hatch does two jobs at once. When it's shut, the glazed lid behaves like a rooflight — bringing natural daylight down into stairwells, corridors and roof spaces. When it's open, it's a safe access point onto the roof for maintenance, inspections or servicing rooftop equipment. That makes it a neat choice on flat roofs of both commercial and residential buildings where you want light and access from a single opening.

Materials and durability
The frame is rigid uPVC — structurally sound and resistant to the elements — and the lid uses FSX UV-stable, long-life polycarbonate for excellent impact resistance and longevity. It's a combination built to keep performing on an exposed roof year after year.

Insulation
Thermal performance depends on the model and glazing level, with U-values ranging from around 1.1 to 2.7 W/m²K across the range. The exact figure is listed on each product, so you can match the hatch to the building's thermal requirements.

Safety and guarantee
Gas spring-assisted lids and hold-open arms make the hatch smooth and safe to open and close, reducing the risk of injury during routine use. And they're built to last: designed for a life of at least 20 years, and guaranteed for 10 years when installed per the instructions.

Frequently asked questions

Can a glazed roof hatch double as a rooflight?
Yes — that's part of the appeal. When closed, the glazed lid works like a rooflight, bringing natural daylight into the stairwell, corridor or roof space below; when open, it gives safe access onto the roof. You get both from a single opening.
How well insulated are glazed roof hatches?
It depends on the model and glazing level, with U-values ranging from around 1.1 to 2.7 W/m²K across the range. The exact figure is shown on each product, so you can match the hatch to your thermal requirements — a lower U-value holds heat in better.
What are glazed roof hatches made from?
The frame is rigid uPVC for structural integrity and weather resistance, and the lid uses FSX UV-stable, long-life polycarbonate — chosen for impact resistance and longevity on an exposed roof.
What guarantee comes with a glazed roof hatch?
They're designed for a service life of at least 20 years and are guaranteed for 10 years when installed in line with the fitting instructions.
