The Sliding Box is a sliding electric roof access system with four glass walls. The perfect solution for comfortable roof access when interior headroom is limited or a nice spacious roof hatch is needed. The size is adaptable to the stair and passage height. Ideal for a roof terrace or roof garden where the maximum allowable building height on the roof is 1.20 meters.

Dutch Roof Design is the exclusive dealer for Glazing Vision, the English manufacturer of this architectural roof access system.

Let’s think outside the Box

Dutch Roof Design introduced the Sliding Box to the Dutch market in 2012. We can say it was an instant success. You combine a stylish electric access to your roof terrace or roof garden with comfort: the raised exit allows you to walk straight out via the stairs. Just like a roof house, there is still room for storage, for example for cushions.

Ventilation

You open the Sliding Box with the push of a button and then stop it in any position. Get warm air out of the house and let fresh air in.

Safety

Laminated glass, linkable with alarm and building management system.

Insulation

Low U-value, HR++ or HR +++ glass, argon filling and solar control.

Always customized

The dimensions of the all-glass Sliding Box are up to 8.4m2 with a maximum span of 3.5m, the height ranging from 0.4m to 1.5m. We will gladly advise you on the ideal size for your project.

Installation service

For this electrical product, we recommend using our installation service. We check the structural preparations in advance so that the installation goes smoothly. We also attach and configure the box.

Free opening of 50%

The sliding part slides over the fixed part and provides a free opening of about 50%, allowing you to walk out comfortably.

Even more daylight

The Sliding Box is made entirely of glass, allowing maximum light to enter inside.

Lots of additional options

The Sliding box comes standard with a wall switch. A remote control is available as an option, as well as keypad access or operation by telephone.
