you the following services:
Design Assistance We
will help you choose the design that is best suited to your
application. Experienced skylight designers utilize the
latest computer-aided design (CAD) work stations to produce
shop drawings of the skylights and their details. This complete
description of the products gives the architect and contractor
confidence in the quality and integrity of the structure.
Drawings of typical designs and construction details are
available on disk in Autocad DWG and DXF format.
Value Engineering Our
designers will review your project and provide cost-saving
suggestions based on our experience. Quality and aesthetic
appeal are combined with economy. Project Management Your
job will become the personal responsibility of a project
manager. Each step of the process-from shop drawings through
final delivery-is identified on the project schedule and
status is tracked continually. You are always within a personal
phone call or an electronic update of what is going on with
your skylight.
Quality Control The
quality built into every skylight is evident in the choice
of the finest materials. Tubular or I-beam members are architectural-grade
aluminum extrusions, heat-treated for superior strength.
Depending on site and design conditions, bolted and/or welded
construction is employed. All component fasteners are concealed
when possible, and are of stainless steel. Clamping bars
are completely covered with snap-on caps, concealing fasteners
and providing a water-tight installation. Glazing support
systems are available in a number of stock sizes, depending
on design loads and deflection criteria.
Professional Engineering
Your skylight design is reviewed, signed, and sealed by
a licensed professional engineer to insure the structural
adequacy of the skylight and its component parts. All applicable
codes are rigorously observed.
Pre-assembly Each project
is pre-assembled on a simulation of curb conditions on our
factory floor, minimizing problems in the field and verifying
the design.
Glazing All types of
glazing materials can be provided in two- and four-sided
systems. Clamping bars or flush silicone structural glazing
is available, and only the highest quality gaskets and sealants
are used.
Single Source Responsibility
inter-sky offers a single source for the skylight from conception
and design through fabrication and custom installation.
Equal care is given to monumental, commercial, or residential
requirements. top of page Inter-sky will build virtually
any configuration of skylight. Shapes include pyramids,
single slopes, double sloped ridge lights, ridges with hipped
or glazed ends, segmented and radius polygons, segmented
and radius domes and vaults, as well as rolling skylights
that can be opened or closed as desired. We can accommodate
all pitched and flat roof conditions. Our work is fully
guaranteed to be of the highest quality and workmanship
required to give years of trouble-free service. We are licensed
contractors in the State of California and our products
meet all applicable codes.
