Frequently asked questions about the adapter frame
When should I choose a Skylux adapter frame?
The adapter frame is the ideal solution for a partial renovation of your flat roof windows or skylights. It allows you to modernise your daylight element while keeping the existing curb. Choose this system when you want top insulation and a sleek design, without modifying the entire roof covering.
Is the frame suitable for my current curb?
The system is highly versatile and fits virtually any substrate, such as wood or polyester, with or without a drip edge. The only requirement is that the existing curb must be at least 150 mm high. The frame integrates seamlessly with our highest-performing windows: the iWindow2, iWindow3, iDome and all Skylux skylights.
How does installation work?
The installation has been developed for maximum efficiency. The adapter frame is screwed directly onto the existing, finished curb. The major advantage: no additional roof covering is needed to make the connection watertight. This saves considerable time and avoids unnecessary demolition work.
What are the insulation values of the system?
Skylux stands for uncompromising quality. The frame is made from impact-resistant white PVC and fitted with integrated EPS insulation (λ = 0,035 W/m².K). This results in an excellent insulation value (Ue value of 0,78 W/m².K), keeping heat loss to a minimum.
How is the frame finished on the inside?
On the inside, you benefit from perfect aesthetic integration. You can choose between a sleek finish with cover profiles or the use of a practical lining groove. This groove is ideal for a seamless connection with plasterboard or for discreetly concealing cables.
Which dimensions are available for the adapter frame?
The Skylux adapter frame is available in more than 110 standard sizes, aligned with the full range of Skylux skylights and flat roof windows we offer. Each size is also produced with a specific clearance, so the frame fits perfectly on your existing curb, regardless of the brand of your current dome. Can't find your size? Get in touch. We will look for the right solution together.
Can I install the adapter frame myself or do I need a professional?
The adapter frame has been developed for fast and simple installation, also for experienced DIYers. The steps are straightforward: remove the old dome, clean the curb, fix the frame and install the new flat roof window or skylight.
