This is a complete recessed flashing system for MK06 VELUX roof windows. It comprises a 90mm tile flashing designed to sit flush with standard pitched roof tile profiles, and a BDX 2000F installation frame sized 780×1180mm.

The 90mm flashing depth is calibrated for typical UK roof tile thicknesses, ensuring a professional finish and consistent roof line.
- Complete kit: flashing and frame supplied together
- Sized for MK06 window: 78×118cm opening
- 90mm flashing depth suits standard pitched roof tiles
- Suitable for new build and refurbishment applications
Compatibility and roof type
This flashing system is engineered specifically for pitched tile roofs and the MK06 window size. Before ordering, confirm that your roof window opening is 78×118cm and that your roof is a pitched tile construction. The 90mm flashing depth is designed for typical tile profiles; if your roof has unusually thick or thin tiles, or if you are installing into a different roof type (such as slate, metal, or flat roof), you will need a different flashing system. Check your roof specifications and window size against the product dimensions to ensure correct fit.
- Pitched tile roofs only
- MK06 window size: 78×118cm
- 90mm flashing depth for standard tile profiles
- Not suitable for flat roofs, slate, or non-standard roof constructions
Pre-installation checks and preparation
Before installation, verify that the roof opening is correctly sized at 78×118cm and that the roof structure is sound and level. Inspect the roof tiles around the opening to confirm they are in good condition and that the pitch and profile match the standard specifications for which this flashing is designed. Ensure you have adequate access and safety equipment for working at height. Check that all components in the kit are present and undamaged upon delivery. Have the VELUX installation instructions to hand, as proper sealing and weatherproofing depend on following the correct assembly and fixing sequence.
- Confirm roof opening is 78×118cm

Weather-tight installation and performance
This recessed flashing system is engineered to create a weather-tight seal that protects against water ingress and thermal bridging. The combination of the 90mm tile flashing and BDX 2000F frame ensures the window sits flush with the roof surface, minimising gaps and maintaining a consistent roof line. Proper installation is essential: follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, use all supplied fixings and sealants, and ensure the flashing is correctly bedded into the tile profile. Once installed correctly, the system will provide long-term durability in typical UK climate conditions and can form part of a broader daylight and ventilation strategy for the property.
