Insulated box gutter Our unique box gutter is twin skinned and insulated to cut condensation. A special fixing plate means, unlike other roofs, no holes are drilled in the gutter - so no leaks and its large 205mm wide design also helps it to cope with extreme rain water demands. The double skin construction also increases strength and reduces sound pollution through the gutter.

The benefits of Global roof High strength rafters Our rafter bars are designed for increased loads so you don t have to compromise on design or weather performance. Aluminium top caps Our woodgrain and painted top cappings are made from aluminium so will not warp or distort under extreme heat or split under extreme cold. Single fixing bolt We don t think it s a good idea to drill holes in something that should be watertight. The unique single fixing bolts are fastened internally for easy and quicker installation. We do not penetrate the main aluminium rafter so there are no fixing holes for water to ingress through. Tie bolt Our precision engineered security locking bolt eradicates movement between the bolt and rafter, to give a strong and rigid anti-slip joint connection. Low level gasket system No one wants to look at their conservatory roof and see thick black gaskets around every glazing bar. That s why we have designed our roof with concealed gaskets. Perfect lead flashing The starter bar is designed to leave a perfect lead flashing line seamlessly connecting the house and conservatory. The lead dresses into a built-in soaker forming a watertight seal and no lead needs to be dressed over the top cap, therefore preventing any unsightly lead lines or staining. End caps Our end caps have a shoulder around the visible face for a more attractive appearance and have been designed with built-in drainage to relieve any trapped water. Variable valley The valley is designed to suit varying pitches and angles and is cloaked internally and externally to give an attractive aesthetic finish.
All foils are available on both inside and outside of the conservatory, or to complement the style of your home, combinations of these colours on white are also available. Coloured roofs to suit every home style We offer conservatory roofs in traditional woodgrain and painted effect foils in a wide range of colours to complement your customer s home. A world of possibilities With the added option to powdercoat the aluminium roof with any RAL colour so your customers have a world of colour options open to them. The colours shown are designed as a guide to the Woodgrain and Artisan Woodgrain Collection. Golden Oak Woodgrain White Cream Rustic Cherry Chartwell Green Before making your final decision, please ensure you have seen a foil swatch.

A style for every customer s home Your individual customer s house and tastes will differ, so at Synseal we can design a conservatory roof, which will suit their home perfectly. Victorian A bay fronted duo-pitched roof with a central ridge, normally with three or five facets at the front. Available in sizes up to 6.5m wide. Georgian/Edwardian A square fronted duo-pitch roof with a central ridge. A style that maximises floor space. Available in sizes up to 6.3m wide. P-shaped A combination shaped roof usually constructed from a lean-to section at the side of a Victorian/ Edwardian shaped roof. This creates a versatile living space. Gable Gable Ended roofs are a variant of the Edwardian style roof and consist of duo-pitched sides with a flat faced frontage. These can include the use of a decorative designed gable frame.
Sizes The Global conservatory roof system is capable of wide spans due to its robust design. Alternatively, our SkySpace portal frame solutions enable bespoke designs with sizeable, wider spanning structures to be constructed. Lean-to A conservatory with a mono pitched roof. The pitch of the roof can be varied making it a versatile option. We can even cope with pitches as low as 2.5 degrees. T-shaped Another combination roof style. Our T-shaped conservatories are aesthetically balanced and create a versatile living space. Lantern Distinguished by two tiered roofs, the Lantern design adds light, height, space and grandeur. Custom Our conservatory roofs are bespoke manufactured, so whatever your customer may have in mind, our technical and design teams can help you evaluate design options and find the best possible solution.

Glazing options Glass Nowadays nearly half of all new conservatories are fitted with a glass roof. Synseal s wide range of roof glass options at competitive prices make it easy for you to order glass at the same time as the roof kit. One order, one invoice and we make sure the glass sizes are correct, so no waiting for glass sizes or mis-measures. We offer the following glass options: Clear Low e-clear Low e-bronze Low-e Neutral Solar Control Low-e Blue Solar Control Low-e Aqua Solar Control Low-e Bronze Solar Control Polycarbonate Polycarbonate is a light weight insulating glazing material manufactured from damage resistant material. Added protection provides resistance against the effects of UV weathering. Clear Silver Opal The Synseal computer systems calculate the exact size of the polycarbonate you require, therefore ensuring there are no errors at the fitting stage and your polycarbonate will be delivered at the same time as your roof. Polycarbonate is available in a range of styles to suit all customers and in 25mm or 35mm. Opal Bronze/Opal Internal View Bronze Bronze/Opal External View
The finishing touch Self-Cleaning Glass Our range of self-cleaning and solar control glasses are the perfect choice for customers looking for the ultimate in glass solutions. Self-cleaning glass Finials and Crestings One of the most visually striking aspects of the conservatory are the finials and crestings. The interlocking PVC-U sections of the crestings incorporate an interlock that ensures once connected they remain in a perfect line. There are decorative finial designs to suit every home and these are available in suited colours. Normal glass Ball finial and Shield cresting Global finial & Global cresting How self-cleaning glass works: Actively breaks down organic dirt Water sheets across its surface to wash dirt away Clear vision even when it s raining Pip/Stud finial Dirty water droplet marks are all but eliminated No need to re-apply the self-cleaning coating Every glass unit incorporates true, dual action self-cleaning glass, which breaks down dirt and washes it away as illustrated in the diagrams shown above. Since the water does not form into droplets on its surface, this means that you can see clearly out of your windows even when it is raining. Additionally, when the water evaporates it doesn t leave behind the usual dirty water droplet marks. The result is that windows stay cleaner for longer! Shield finial and cresting The self-cleaning coating is also applied as the glass is actually being manufactured. This means that it is fused into the surface and therefore lasts the lifetime of the pane of glass, unlike the spray on easy-clean coatings which wear off after a period of time and need to be re-applied.
