Features & Benefits
Galaxy Saddle Ridgelites are the most economical form of metal-framed skylights. Because the skylight straddles the building rooftop, there is no need for curbing. And, since there are no end walls, the glazing and framing costs are much less. Using our different systems we can obtain spans well into the 30’ range.
