Fakro FGH-V Galeria Balcony Window

A Kent peg tile or plain tile roof with a 40° pitch is typical of those in which dormers are a common sight.

However the FGH-V has a number of advantages including:

  • it is far lighter in weight
  • quicker to install
  • can normally be installed without planning consent
  • when closed it has the appearance of a standard roof window
  • long glazing span enables a far higher amount of natural daylight to enter a room
