Glass roof panels
Glass for roof lights, glass roofs and rear extensions, processed to your sizes.
Overhead glass has to stay safe if it breaks, so roof panels are normally laminated, and often built into an insulated unit with a Low-E coating to control heat. We process roof glazing to the sizes on your drawing, for a single roof light or a whole roof.
Tell us how the glass will be supported. If you are not sure which build-up you need, say so in your notes and we will advise.
Replacing a polycarbonate roof
Glass gives a clearer view, a quieter roof in the rain and a longer life than polycarbonate. It is also heavier, so the frame and glazing bars should be checked by an installer before you order. Our guide replacing a conservatory roof with glass covers what to check.
A typical roof unit
- Outer pane: toughened, to take weather and impact
- Inner pane: laminated, so broken glass stays in place above the room
- Cavity: sealed, often gas filled, with a Low-E coating
- Options: solar control and self-cleaning coatings
How to order
- Sketch the roof and number every panel.
- Measure each panel in millimetres and note the thickness the glazing bars accept.
- Mark any non-rectangular panels with all their dimensions.
- Tell us which way the roof faces, so we can advise on solar control.
Questions we are asked
Can I walk on a glass roof panel?
No. Roof panels are made to carry weather and maintenance loads from the glazing system, not people. Walk-on glass is a different product.
Do you fit the glass?
We make and supply the glass. Fitting should be done by a conservatory or glazing installer.

Where is it made?
At our factory in Tuzla, Istanbul. See inside our factory.
