National sliding aero glass

Designed for flexibility
One of the key concerns during the Aero Glide’s 12-month development was flexibility of specification. It features a sliding pane that is available in two configurations: either over a fixed pane of glazing (allowing maximum natural light to enter) or over a cantilever frame. This sliding element of the skylight works on a vertical or horizontal axis so it can open across its width or across its length.
For end users convenience is key, so Sunsquare also engineered the Aero Glide to allow glass to move quickly and quietly. Its innovative sliding design offers market-leading opening and closing times as fast as 10 seconds per metre. Its two compact motor gears are hidden within the base frame, keeping noise to a minimum for smooth and discreet opening (operated electronically through a custom-built control panel with an easy-to-use press-and-hold two-button switch).
Unrivalled thermal efficiency
Sunsquare rooflights have the most thermally efficient profiles on the market - and the Aero Glide is no exception. Its specially adapted frame contains three separate runs of thermal break, using polyamide insulating sections to create an effective barrier between internal and external temperatures. This guards against cold bridging, which can cause unwanted condensation and potential structural damage if left untreated. The Aero Glide also features argon-filled, soft-coat low emissivity glass to help reflect internal heat and add another layer of insulation.
Safe and secure - no matter what
Anyone who puts glass over people’s heads needs to take safety seriously. Like all Sunsquare rooflights, the Aero Glide comes with shatter-proof laminated glass as standard. The safest, most reliable glass on the market, it helps protect end users in the event of damage by catching and holding any broken glass crystals within the laminate. It also provides effective protection from UV rays, while still allowing natural light to stream in.
A skylight for life
Sunsquare designed the Aero Glide to provide architects with more choice, balancing style with functionality. The company is committed to working with specifiers to help breathe life into buildings, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in rooflight design - and continuing to set the standard for safety, efficiency and performance along the way.
