For an opening window, the width can be specified from 600mm up to 3000mm and the length between 600mm and 2000mm.

Whereas for a fixed window designers can specify from 250mm up to 300mm width and length from 600mm to 2000mm.

Designers can choose individual Walk-on rooflights up to 2sqm, triple layer up to 3sqm and double layer up to 4sqm.

Speaking at the UK launch at Camden House in London, business manager of Vario by Velux Carl Frederik Gierding explained why the company has now introduced a bespoke rooflight: “We have seen a trend for increased customisation of all parts of the home.

“In response to this, we wanted to create a completely customisable rooflight to fit all senses of style and design and need for more space by bringing more daylight into the home along the way.”
