Below is a brief overview of our products but to discuss how you can make the most of a NuDawn glazing solution in your project, talk to one of our experts Contact Us

Frameless Fixed Flat Rooflights

The NuDawn frameless flat skylight is an industry leading design.  Our unique range of rooflights and skylights deliver the high quality innovation and durability to transform your space into a bright, airy living environment.

Although our flat rooflights offer a frameless appearance, the glass sits onto thermally broken aluminium comprising of 2 x 27mm polyamide inserts to ensure excellent thermal performance.  Our standard glazing specification is double glazed and includes solar control and self-clean glass.  Triple glazing options in a variety of thicknesses and specifications mean that we can offer glazing u-values from 1.0 down to 0.2.

NuDawn flat roof windows are rigorously tested to ensure we provide industry leading performance and comply to the following criteria:

Weathertightness in accordance with BS 6375-1:2015

Air Permeability test in accordance with BS EN 1026:2000

Watertightness test in accordance with BS EN 1027:2000

Resistance to wind load in accordance with BS EN 12211:2000

Another feature of the NuDawn flat skylight is a 48mm overhang for a better weather tight seal. To ensure a better weathertightness, there are no external fixings on a NuDawn flat rooflights.  To aid the installation process our framless flat fooflight glazing is supplied with metal fixings straps which are screwed into the internal timber upstand and then covered over with plasterboard to ensure the perfect frameless look.  Site built kerb upstands should provide a minimum pitch of 5 degrees and a maximum pitch of 45 degrees.

NuDawn low pitch skylights are available in a range of standard sizes but we can also produce bespoke rooflights to your required sizes. Our skylights are painted in either RAL9005m Black or RAL7016 Anthracite Grey as standard with other RAL colours available upon request.

Frameless Opening Flat Rooflights

Our frameless range of skylights, not only provide exceptional amounts of natural daylight but with our opening version you can also have the benefit of adding ventilation to your project.

As with our fixed range of rooflights, the product still has the sleek frameless appearance and with these rooflights, the glass sits onto thermally broken aluminium comprising of 4 x 35mm polyamide inserts to ensure excellent thermal performance.  The NuDawn opening range of rooflights utilise our industry leading triple seal gasket system to help the product achieve to the following testing criteria:

Weathertightness in accordance with BS 6375-1:2015

Air Permeability test in accordance with BS EN 1026:2000

Watertightness test in accordance with BS EN 1027:2000

Resistance to wind load in accordance with BS EN 12211:2000

NuDawn opening flat skylights can be manually operated in the smaller sizes or electrically operated for rooflights with heavier casements.  Standard electric operation is via a wireless remote control and opens the casement to 400mm.  For larger casements it might be necessary to have multiple chain drives working together, however our team will be able to provide guidance and advice with this.

The NuDawn framless flat skylight is supplied with also supplied with the metal fixings straps which are screwed into the internal timber upstand and then covered over with plasterboard to ensure the perfect frameless look.  Site built kerb upstands should provide a minimum pitch of 5 degrees and a maximum pitch of 15 degrees.

Frameless Lantern/Pyramid

The ultra-modern NuDawn roof Lantern / Pyramid glazing is one of the slimmest designs on the market today, providing greater light transmittance than most alternative lantern rooflights.  This is because traditionally, other companies use chunky glazing bars which makes the overall appearance more bulky and obtrusive and can also reduce the thermal performance.  So not only are NuDawn skylights designed and hand crafted to the highest standards in the UK, our lantern / pyramid design is more efficient and aesthetically pleasing than the rest.

Consisting of glass to glass joins with thermal foam barrier the glazing offers a u-value of just 1.0 and includes solar control and self-clean glass as standard.  The use of solar control glazing reduces the effects of UV rays and helps to keep the environment cool in the summer months and warmer in winter.

Our lantern / pyramid rooflights boast a sleek frameless appearance and as with our flat rooflights, the glass sits onto thermally broken aluminium comprising of 2 x 32mm polyamide inserts.  This framing is finished in a tough and long lasting polyester powder coated paint in in either RAL9005m Black or RAL7016 Anthracite Grey as standard with other RAL colours available upon request.

Another feature of the NuDawn flat skylight is a 23mm overhang for a better weather tight seal.   To ensure a better weathertightness, there are no external fixings on a NuDawn lantern or pyramid rooflight.

Our frameless roof lantern is one of a kind with its structural glass to glass joins both internally and externally.  Not only do we offer this product as a fixed design but we can also provide the design as a frameless opening roof lantern.  This design is perfect to keep your look sleek and simple, with the added benefit of ventilation when required.

Available with a maximum size of 2200mm x 1200mm the standard electric operation is via a wireless remote control and opens the casement to 300mm.  For larger casements it might be necessary to have multiple chain drives working together, however our team will be able to provide guidance and advice with this.

NuDawn Walk-On Skylights

The NuDawn walk-on glass floor is not only stunning from a design perspective, but it also fulfils an important practical purpose which is to allow light to permeate into the room below.  The NuDawn walk-on can open up new design possibilities and increase the light to your project.

Our walk-on rooflight boasts thermal breaks of 27mm and a glass specification off 33mm component laminate, making the NuDawn rooflight one of the safest and most thermally efficient walk-on products available.  The glass is also available in a clear finish or with a privacy anti-slip coating.

The framing is finished in a tough and long lasting polyester powder coated paint in in either RAL9005m Black or RAL7016 Anthracite Grey as standard with other RAL colours available upon request.

The NuDawn walk-on rooflight would sit on a level kerb.  The floor level is raised to sit flush with the walk-on rooflight and you would have a waterproof deck with the kerb coming off that and then have the permeable paving above. The paving would normally sit around 5-6mm from the edge of the rooflight and that gap is sealed with a silicone.

The NuDawn Glass Box

This beautiful glazing product offers something special and allows a great deal of light into your design.  The NuDawn glass box incorporates the latest in glass bonding and structural glass and provides a seamless glass box structure which is fully integrated into the building making a feature of any location.

Blending high quality components into a remarkable ultra slim edge design, the NuDawn glass box also benefits from a 27mm polyamide thermal break and maximises the glass area for an outstanding thermal performance.

Supplied fully bonded the NuDawn glass box would sit onto a site built steel framing.  The NuDawn glass box is available in depths of 300, 400, 500, 600, 800 & 1000mm.

The NuDawn Frameless Glass Balustrade

Using a revolutionary new design of fully integrated frameless glass balustrade system which is thermally broken and fully integrated to fit bi-fold, sliding French doors and tilt and turn window systems, the NuDawn balustrade has been tested to BS6180 and surpassed current regulations.

We believe this is one of the safest balustrade systems currently available and utilises a 16.8mm laminated glass with the very latest laminate technology.  Free from top or bottom rails the NuDawn balustrade offers unobstructed views from your property.

The NuDawn balustrade is fixed into the main structure of the building and is supplied with a tough and long lasting polyester powder coated paint in in either RAL9005m Black, RAL7016 Anthracite Grey, RAL7015m Slate Grey or RAL 9010m White.
