VELUX Centre-Pivot Roof Windows Pine 78x118cm GGL MK06 3070
What this window is and who it suits
This is a centre-pivot roof window with top operation, meaning the sash rotates around a central horizontal axis. It is suitable for pitched roofs and works well in properties where you want to maintain usable floor space beneath the window. The pine frame finish suits traditional and contemporary interiors. It is ideal for loft conversions, attic bedrooms, home offices, and any space where you need both natural light and ventilation without obstruction from an opening window sash.
Glazing and safety features
The window comes with premium glazing as standard, including safety lamination, toughened glass, and a UV filter to protect furnishings and reduce fading. A unique rain noise reduction feature minimises sound during heavy rainfall. A removable and cleanable ventilation filter is fitted to protect your home from dust and insects whilst allowing fresh air circulation, even when the window is closed.
- Safety laminated and toughened glass for impact resistance
- UV filter reduces sun damage to interior furnishings
- Rain noise reduction technology for quieter operation
- Removable ventilation filter for easy maintenance
Operation and cleaning
The top control bar allows you to open the window to a ventilation position for fresh air without fully opening the sash, or rotate it 180 degrees for safe external glass cleaning from inside. This design eliminates the need for external access equipment and makes maintenance straightforward. The centre-pivot mechanism means the window opens smoothly regardless of furniture placement below.
- Top control bar for intuitive operation
- Ventilation position for controlled fresh air
- 180-degree rotation for safe external cleaning
- Operates smoothly with furniture underneath
Sizing, compatibility and blind installation
This window is sized MK06 at 78x118cm, which is a standard VELUX roof window dimension. Before purchase, confirm your roof opening matches this size or that you are prepared to adapt the opening. The window comes with pre-fitted brackets that allow you to quickly and easily click blinds into place, giving you flexible light and privacy control. Check that your roof pitch and structure are suitable for centre-pivot installation, and ensure adequate headroom above the window for safe operation of the top control bar.
