DXW - walkable windows
They feature a glass design in a functional versions that allows for safe surface loading.
Windows for flat roofs designed for walking on
More and more people find flat roofs as additional usable space. They are no longer just a structural element, but often a terrace, garden or space for meetings and relaxation. To take full advantage of this space, solutions are needed that combine safety and comfort. Windows designed for walking on fulfil this role, as they not only let light into the interior, but also become an integral part of the terrace or green roof. They are flush with the roofing surface, creating no thresholds or obstacles, while retaining all the thermal insulation parameters typical of modern roof windows. This solution allows homes and public buildings to be designed more functionally and open to new possibilities. Interiors gain more light, and the roof becomes a safe and practical area for everyday life.
Safe use of the terrace and roof
One of the most important features of this type of windows is their reinforced structure and non-slip coating on the outer pane. You can walk across their surface as easily as on tiles, decking or a green roof. Reducing the risk of slipping gives both adults and children a sense of security. The window thus becomes part of the communication space. The P2A laminated glass used provides additional protection against the effects of possible breakage, as in the event of damage, the shards remain adhered to the film. This protection means the window can be safely used in highly popular areas, and families have greater peace of mind in their daily use of the terrace.
Interiors full of light and warmth
Natural light entering through the glass significantly improves the quality of life in rooms under the roof. Interiors become brighter, visually larger and more pleasant for everyday use. The design, based on a double-chamber glazing unit with a Ug value of 0.5 W/m²K, keeps the heat inside in winter and prevents rooms from excessive heat gain in summer. The entire window achieves a Uw coefficient of 0.7 W/m²K, which places it in the group of energy-efficient solutions. PVC profiles filled with insulation further improve thermal parameters and protect against moisture, which is why they work well even in rooms such as bathrooms or laundry rooms. The technology used makes it possible to take advantage of natural light without compromising on thermal comfort, which in the long term also translates into lower energy bills.
Resistance to everyday weather conditions
Every building exterior element must be able to withstand changing weather conditions. DXW windows are equipped with external toughened glass, which comes with a lifetime hail resistance warranty. This means that even during violent storms or heavy rainfall, users can feel safe. Laminated glass on the inside further increases the level of protection, and the reinforced frame design ensures that the window remains tight and stable for many years. PVC profiles do not require regular maintenance and are resistant to moisture and cleaning agents. This is a practical solution, especially in spaces where the roof has a functional role and the fittings must be as durable and trouble-free as possible in everyday use..
Aesthetics adapted to modern spaces
Although functionality is key, appearance should not be overlooked. The flat glass pane flush with the roof surface gives the overall design a consistent and minimalist look. The window does not disrupt the aesthetics of the terrace; on the contrary, it fits into its design, emphasising the simple form of modern architecture. This solution gives architects greater design freedom, as the element that illuminates the interior also becomes an integral part of the usable space. The possibility of installation on green, gravel or technical roofs means that windows of this type can be used in a wide variety of projects, from private single-family homes to large public buildings. It is a combination of practicality and aesthetics that works well in many contexts.
