Gable Ridge Skylights

Gable ridge skylights exist in conditions where the skylight continues the same angle of the roof pitch and the apex of the skylight coincides with the roof ridge line. These types of skylights can be mounted on curbs on flat roofs with a variety of pitch options and glazed vertical ends. Additionally, gable ridge skylights can attach to vertical walls at either or both ends. Skylight pitch is normally determined by the architect's aesthetic intent, structural engineering requirements, or both.
