With roofing contractors reporting improved workloads in the first quarter of 2024 (according to the latest NFRC survey), demand for energy-efficient and compliant products continues to dominate.
KEYLITE ROOF WINDOWS (Keylite), Europe’s fastest-growing roof window manufacturer, continues to meet this demand head-on with a range of innovative solutions. For example, its roof windows include the incomparable Flick-Fit brackets, which are pre-fitted into the window frame.
Installers simply flick the brackets into place to fit the window, which can be installed from the inside of the building for improved safety. This unique feature allows for the window to be installed from box to roof in just under two minutes.
Another innovative product feature is an expanding thermal collar integrated into the frame as standard. The built-in patented collar expands to fill and fully insulate the gap around the frame of the window, preventing thermal bridging which can be responsible for up to 30 per cent of a dwelling’s heat loss.
Keylite has also fitted a patented springloaded hinge to its sash to guarantee it remains in position and slots easily into the frame’s housing in one smooth and easy motion for a fast installation.
The business is currently collaborating with NFRC on its ‘Work Smart, Stay Grounded’ 2024 campaign, which has seen the team visit more than 60 builders’ merchants across the UK and Ireland to encourage merchants and their customers to engage with a ‘challenge yourself, not your safety’ virtual reality game.
