Flat-Glass Roof Windows
7 products
Flat glass windows are skylights designed for flat or low-pitch roofs: the glass pane is smooth, without a dome, and the window is mounted on an upstand or a raised structure. In this collection you will find the Fakro models for this type of roof.
What you will find
- Flat roof windows from the DEF series, for bringing light into the rooms below.
- Flat roof skylights, such as the DRF models.
- Flat roof hatches, such as the DRL models, which also provide access to the roof.
How to choose
The choice starts from the size of the opening in the roof slab and the function: light only, light with an opening for ventilation, or roof access for maintenance. Then consider the build-up of the roof, because the flashing is made on the upstand and the waterproofing. Give us the model code when ordering accessories or spare parts.
For quantities, sizes and availability we will prepare a quotation: write to us or call us and we will reply with delivery times.

Frequently asked questions: Flat-Glass Roof Windows
What is a flat roof window?
A flat roof window has a smooth pane of glass, without a dome, and is designed for flat or low-pitched roofs. It is fitted on a kerb or raised structure and brings light into the rooms below. The collection includes fixed flat roof windows, skylights and hatches.
What is the difference between a fixed window and a flat roof hatch?
The fixed window, such as the Fakro DXC-C P2 or DXF DU6, only brings light into the room. The Fakro DRL flat roof hatch opens and is also used to access the roof. Choose the hatch if you need to go up onto the roof, the fixed window if you only need light.
How do I choose the size of a flat roof window?
The size starts from the opening in the slab, that is, the opening prepared for the window. Before ordering, measure the opening carefully and check the kerb or raised structure on which the window rests. Models such as the DEF DU6 or DRF DU6 should be chosen according to the size of the opening and the function required.
Does the DRG P2 flat roof skylight open?
The Fakro DRG P2 flat roof skylight belongs to the category of skylights designed to bring light into the rooms below the roof. To find out whether it opens or is fixed, check the model's sheet, because the title does not state this feature. Ask for confirmation before choosing the model if you need ventilation.
Which flat roof hatch do I need to access the roof?
To access the flat roof from inside, use the Fakro DRL flat roof hatch, which also serves as an inspection point. It must be fitted on a suitable kerb or base, and the opening must be prepared in the slab. After installation, check that the lid closes properly and that the watertightness is intact.
How do I make a flat roof window watertight?
Watertightness is achieved with the connection between the window and the kerb, made with suitable waterproofing materials and the flashing profiles indicated by the manufacturer. Installation must be done with the right slope, because water must not pool on the glass. Check the seal after the first rains.
Who installs flat-glass windows, and for what buildings?
Sheet-metal workers, waterproofing contractors, roofing technicians and building contractors install them, during the construction or refurbishment of flat roofs, covered terraces or rooms under a roof. They are suited to buildings with a flat roof, where light is needed from above without a protruding dome.
