Product Information
QuadSpan™ translucent polycarbonate skylights feature an innovative two panel design that enhances thermal performance and provides soft, diffuse sunlight to building interiors. Glazing panels are pre-assembled for easy installation and can span long distances, allowing for a clean look with less visible exterior framing, all while being significantly lighter than traditional glass skylights.
QuadSpan™ is available in a variety of configurations, is custom designed to fit your project’s needs, and is a great choice for new construction and renovation.
