What are Warehouse Skylights / Rooflights?

Industrial or Warehouse skylights or rooflights are roof windows that follow the identical angle of the roof. These are made to fit the profile of the roof covering. Skylights are fabricated from a (GRP) fibreglass without colouring, making it transparent, permitting light to penetrate your workspace. Industrial skylights or rooflights are an effective manner of lighting for your commercial or industrial environment without the need for electricity. Skylights/roof lights are utilised in modern-day construction plans more than ever, with the regular rise of utilities. (GRP) products last much longer as the products continue to advance.

High-quality (GRP) these days can last as long as 35 years as a rooflight before it indicates any symptoms of deterioration or breaking down because of the regular assault from the ultraviolet rays brought on by the sun.

How are they fitted?

Rooflights and or Warehouse Skylights are fitted with a simple process, access to the roof is always required and should only be carried out by professionals. This is because working at height can be dangerous without the proper knowledge of knowing how to harness yourself or knowing the supported areas on the Corrugated roof to stand.

First, the old skylight or rooflight is removed, this is done by removing the old fixings. Fixings can vary depending on the material of the purlin. Purlins are usually made of steel or wood, but also come in concrete. Once the fixings are removed, the old Skylight / Rooflight is taken out and a new one is ready to be installed.

New Skylight / Rooflight Installation can sometimes be tricky, depending on the material of the other corrugated sheets, the Skylight / Rooflight is placed under the sheet above and above the sheet below. Once in place, sealant bead is applied to ensure a proper seal, then new fixings are screwed or hooked onto the purlins. To complete the work, any holes left behind from previous fixings are sealed and covered with flashing and/ or liquid coating systems.

FAQs

What are warehouse sky lights?

Warehouse skylights, also known as rooflights, are translucent panels integrated into the roof structure to allow natural light into the building. Typically made from materials like GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic), these skylights follow the roof’s profile and are designed to provide illumination without the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours. They are commonly used in industrial and commercial settings to enhance visibility and reduce energy costs.

What are the benefits of installing sky lights in a warehouse?

  • Energy Efficiency: By harnessing natural light, skylights reduce the reliance on artificial lighting, leading to lower electricity costs.

  • Improved Working Environment: Natural light has been shown to enhance employee productivity and mental health.

  • Sustainability: Reducing energy consumption aligns with eco-friendly initiatives and contributes to green building certifications.

  • Enhanced Visibility: Skylights provide even lighting across large spaces, removing dark corners and improving safety.

How are skylights installed in a warehouse?

The installation process typically involves removing sections of the existing roofing, inserting the new skylight panels to overlap appropriately with adjacent sheets, sealing all joints to prevent leaks, and fixing the units securely to the roof structure. Flashing and liquid coatings may also be applied for added waterproofing. This work is best handled by professionals to ensure durability and proper integration.

How long do warehouse sky lights last?

Modern skylights made from high-quality materials like GRP can last up to 35 years with minimal degradation. Their lifespan is significantly extended thanks to advancements in UV protection and weather resistance.

Are skylights energy-efficient?

Yes. Skylights are an energy-efficient solution for warehouses. By harnessing natural daylight, they reduce dependence on electric lighting. Many modern skylight systems also include insulating properties, helping regulate indoor temperatures and reducing heating and cooling costs.

Do sky lights require maintenance?

While skylights are generally low-maintenance, periodic checks are recommended to ensure they remain in good condition. Routine inspections should include checking seals for leaks, clearing debris, and cleaning the panels to ensure maximum light transmission.

Can skylights be installed on any type of warehouse roof?

Most warehouse roofs, including those with metal or corrugated profiles, can accommodate skylights. However, it’s important to assess the roof’s structure and pitch beforehand. A professional inspection will determine the best design and placement for optimal performance.

Are skylights safe and weatherproof?

When professionally installed, skylights are completely safe and built to withstand harsh weather conditions. Quality skylights are sealed to prevent water ingress and are made from materials designed to resist wind, rain, and UV damage.

Can old or damaged skylights be replaced?

Yes. Older skylights can be replaced with new, more efficient units. This process involves removing the original panel and installing an updated version with improved materials and sealing systems. It’s a straightforward task that minimises disruption when done by experts.

How do I get started?

If you’re considering skylights for your warehouse, the first step is to consult with an experienced roofing specialist. Maldon Roofing Services Ltd can assess your needs and provide expert recommendations and installation services tailored to your building.
