OUR SCOPE

  • inter-sky’s preconstruction team offers technical support, along with performance and budget solutions to help design the most effective custom skylight solution for your unique project. We provide detailed CAD shop drawings (DWG & DXF) to ensure clarity and confidence for both architects and contractors. Details for typical configurations are available for download here.

  • inter-sky’s project managers work closely with clients to coordinate schedules, engage engineering to generate project specific shop drawings, structural calculations, system test reports, glass samples, paint/finish samples for approval to prepare for fabrication.

  • inter-sky’s team builds each custom skylight to the project’s finalized plans, specifications, sizes, and code requirements. From custom residential to monumental, each skylight system is fully fabricated and finished in our factory, then meticulously prepared for delivery to the site for installation.

  • inter-sky offers a unique single-source solution as a manufacturer with our own team of experienced installers. Based in Southern California, nationwide installation is also available.   

    Our installation managers will help navigate challenges that are often inevitable in construction to complete each project with our clients’ best possible experience.

    inter-sky provides the installation labor required for each project; private, prevailing wage and union installation, and issues the specified bonds and warranties on materials and installation.  We are licensed contractors in California, Nevada, Washington, and Arizona.
