Special Function Roof Windows

Every project has specific goals. Building a new bathroom? You’ll need water and condensation resistant windows. Designing a loft conversion above a flat roof? You might want security windows to reduce the risk of burglary. Whatever your project, we have the speciality roof window to suit.

Thermal Efficiency

Windows can be a weak point in a building’s thermal insulation - but not with Dakea. Our Energy range in particular, such as Better Energy and Vision Energy, are designed to maximise insulation efficiency. You can build warmer houses that use less energy. All our roof windows, even in our most affordable ranges, use low E-coating to reflect heat. They reduce heat loss through a building’s roof windows.

Security Windows

If security is a part of your project’s goals, consider selecting our most secure roof windows. With class P4A security glazing, a toughened external pane, and reinforced hinges - among other features - they’re a great addition to building security.

Moisture Resistance

If you’re building a bathroom or kitchen, it's important to consider the impact of moisture. Our range of PVC windows is a fantastic choice for areas prone to moisture. In addition, the thermal efficiency of our range will help to reduce condensation on windows. Why not use our window configurator tool to help you find the best roof windows for your project?
