Securing rooflight to structural opening
Working inside the building, drill Ø3 mm pilot holes into the supporting structure through the pre-
drilled holes in the product’s
framework.
Adjust the previously taped packers to bridge the gaps fully and to align with the holes.
Secure the product to the supporting structure using the woodscrews. Care should be taken when tightening the fixings to ensure
the frame does not distort.
If performing a dry run, screws through some of the fixing holes into the rafters can be used to temporarily hold the
product in place. The position of the product can be marked, and the product removed. The installation can then be
started.
If installing into an alternative material to wood, it may be necessary to source suitable wall plugs and/or fixings to
use instead of those provided.
