SYSTEMS OVERVIEW

These are the systems available for glazing projects. Your choice should be based on the building codes in your area.

SKYQUEST

A non-structural glazing system consisting of a base, pressure cap, cover, and related hardware. An attractive and secure system that attaches to aluminum, steel, or wood structural members.

Specially designed for glazing over a structural skeleton of steel, aluminum, or wood. Great for glass or polycarbonate projects. A wide profile is designed to handle the high expansion ratios of polycarbonate.

SkyQuest systems are ideal for custom sunrooms, solariums, conservatories, skylights, etc. If your old skylight is structurally sound, consider using SkyQuest and just replace the glazing and exterior pressure caps. SkyQuest is a great way to upgrade your skylight glazing and eliminate leaks.
