Flat roofs and rooftop terraces are appearing on buildings around Wenceslas Square in Prague and in the centers of other cities. They are among the beautiful parts of houses, captivating romantics with their airiness and space, as well as real estate agents and developers with the increasing sale price of apartments.

A smart solution for access to the terrace and comfortable rooftop doors is the topic of this article. A suitably designed entrance will allow passage with an upright head and will be wide enough for, for example, a tray of coffee. "I want to comfortably walk up the stairs to the terrace, to the balcony, to the rooftop herb bed, to the rooftop garden, etc. I don't want to have to climb a ladder or steep mill stairs," is something users of new spaces often say.
The concept of fully glazed Solara rooftop doors allows passing through the roof via a pleasant staircase, which will also fully illuminate the space. The length of the rooftop doors is 2.8 and 3.4 meters, designed for a comfortable staircase slope and enough headroom even for a man in a hat or a lady in high heels. The width is designed for a comfortable passage of 800mm. The Solara documentation also includes a recommended design for the staircase arm and the shape of the reveal.

"We continued to work on the design of the rooftop doors and the result is an overhanging glass that covers the roofing elements and looks cool, with many partial visual enhancements, as well as a new affordable electromechanical control for the tilting rooftop doors and a recommended installation solution for integration into flat or sloped roofs, in the variant of concrete ceilings as well as wooden ceiling structures - that is something builders appreciate." states Jakub Formánek from Solara.

Thermal insulation treatment and electric motors

The roof is the most thermally stressed part of the house during winter and summer fluctuations. The thermal insulation treatment must be excellent – triple glazing, double sealing between the frame and the sash, a very warm sandwich frame for the rooftop doors, and preparation for direct connection of the roof's thermal insulation as well as direct connection for PVC foil covering.
Solara sliding rooftop doors are available in manual and electromechanical versions, while Solara tilting rooftop doors are always electromechanical. The delivery can include a set of rain and security sensors and a backup power supply for completely invisible or visible electric openers. The control unit is prepared for connection to home intelligence and control applications.
