Velux Flat Roof Skylight Custom Pitch Adapter Flashing

Custom Skylight Flashings are used to install Velux Flat Roof Skylights when the roof pitch is below 5°. Velux Flat Roof Skylights won’t leak below 5°, however Velux recommends they are pitched with a slight pitch to prevent condensation build up and water ponding. Velux Flat Roof Skylights do not come with any flashings so a custom flashing is needed so it can be installed.

Skyspan Custom Skylight Flashings are used to install Velux Flat Roof Skylights onto Tile, Corrugated, Metaldeck and Concrete Roofs. Included with the Flashing is a Timber hob for the FCM to be mounted to and the plasterboard shaft to be fixed to.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Why do I need a custom flashing for a Velux skylight?

Velux flat roof skylights are supplied without flashings, and standard Velux flashings are typically limited to tiled roofs and specific pitch ranges. Skyspan custom flashings are purpose-designed to correctly integrate Velux skylights into metal deck, corrugated, tile, and concrete roofs, ensuring long-term weatherproofing and compliance with Australian Standards.

What roof pitches can Skyspan Velux flashings suit?

Skyspan manufactures custom flashings to suit roof pitches from 0° through to 90°, including:

- Flat roofs (0–5°) using pitch adaptors
- Low-pitch roofs (5–14°)
- Standard pitched roofs (15°+)

Where Velux minimum pitch requirements apply, Skyspan flashings are engineered to raise the skylight to the correct effective pitch, preventing water ponding, condensation issues, and warranty problems.

What makes Skyspan flashings different to standard or competitor flashings?

Skyspan flashings are built for longevity and site flexibility:

- 0.75 mm BlueScope Zincalume® steel (significantly thicker than typical 0.42–0.55 mm alternatives)
- One-piece, spot-welded construction (no rivets, reduced leak risk)
- Custom-made to suit roof profile, pitch, and skylight model
- Powder-coated or finished to match Colorbond®, Dulux®, Interpon®, and more
- Manufactured in Australia and backed by a 7-year warranty

Which Velux models are compatible with Skyspan custom flashings?

Skyspan manufactures flashings for most Velux models, including:

- Flat Roof Skylights – FCM (fixed), VCM (manual), VCS (solar)
- Pitched Roof Skylights – FS, VS, VSE, VSS
- Roof Windows – GGL, GPL
- If you have an unusual model or older Velux unit, Skyspan can confirm compatibility before manufacture.
