What is a roof access hatch?

A roof access hatch provides safe access to the roof from inside the building. No more outside ladders, which are often dangerous, especially in winter when the risk of slipping is increased. This device offers a practical and safe alternative for roof access.

Roof hatch materials and features

The access hatch can be installed on both flat and sloping roofs. Because of Canada’s harsh climatic conditions, it needs to be particularly robust. For this reason, aluminum and galvanized steel frames are preferred, to guarantee optimum durability. The glazing used must also be able to withstand heavy loads, as the hatch will have to withstand the elements, including snow and frost.

Combining access hatch and skylight

Did you know that you can combine a roof access hatch with a skylight? Not only does this provide convenient access to the roof, it also maximizes the amount of natural light entering the home. This combo is becoming increasingly popular in new builds and renovations. It reduces the need for artificial lighting while adding an aesthetic element to your home.

In addition to offering more light, a hatch combined with a skylight can provide access to usable outdoor space, such as a terrace or balcony. This is an additional asset to your home’s design, while adding value to your property. Several styles and finishes are available to personalize your access hatch, so that it blends perfectly with the architecture of your building.
