Customer Reviews for VELUX 21 in. x 54-7/16 in. Fixed Deck-Mount Skylight with Laminated Low-E3 Glass

I had my handy man install our skylight and it look great and was able to open and close the window. Then a few days later we tried to open the skylight using the hook pole and the hook eye snapped off. I wish it was made of metal instead of plastic. I placed an order with the manufacturer for a new metal eye hook with a universal hinge, because HD won’t ship to my location for a small part. Hope this helps.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had my cottage reroofed and replaced two existing skylights with two Velux fixed Skylights. They look great, are well constructed and look like they will hold up for a long time. The price was also very reasonable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed this past summer and I love the light it provides in our loft. Velux products are so well made and they stand behind their products. Wouldn't think of installing any other brand.

We purchased 4 replacement fixed skylights and they are awesome. The features have been improved over the years and they look sound amazing. So happy with the upgrade

I brought this product a month ago and am so glad I did so.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will always love the skylights of my entrance to Heaven

This was a replacement for and ugly plexiglass leaking skylight. So much of an improvement.

These were super easy to install and they look great. Added four of them to the project

Bought this for my wife's birthday present. I installed it a month ago and it's been great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am just in the middle of renovating my house and decided to go the extra mile and put in the skylights. I am so glad i did. They bring so much light into the rooms. I love that the blinds are solar powered too and can use the remote to open and close them. Great product.

This venting skylight replaced a 100-year-old fixed skylight in my attic space. What a difference fresh air makes, not to mention that it is remote controlled. The space is so improved that I think I will finish it and make and additional room.

We replaced the old ones with the New Velux and glad we did.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just bought this product and i am amazed at its sturdy construction and overall quality of it. I wish I had bought if much sooner.

Crystal clear skylight. Quick installation. Order came in sooner than expected. I had to replace a nearby 30 year old plexiglass skylight that came with our track home. The original was cracking but not yet leaking. I wanted to replace it before it leaked! Velux is glass and the view amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent quality and workmanship. Easily installed

Replaced my existing skylights that were nearly 20 years old. Love the look and really appreciate the peace of mind that comes with the warranty.

Our Velux replacement fixed skylight was installed with our new roof in December in our bathroom. ( Previous owners had a skylight installed at some point and it was cloudy with age and in need of replacement. Also, there is no space for a window in this twin home.) I love the sunlight that floods our bathroom every day and also lights up a dark hallway and stairwell!! I don't need to turn on the light when I am home during the day as I am retired. I also enjoy seeing the moon and stars at night thru the crystal clear glass in the skylight. Our roof installer wishes he had one in his home too as he lives in an identical twin house!! I would recommend a skylight to anyone who has a dark stairwell or room without a window. You just can't beat the natural sunlight!!

Just got done replacing my 8 existing skylights with New Velux units that come with preinstalled solar shades. This combo qualifies for a 30% federal tax credit which brings the cost below the Fixed Skylight cost without the shades. I can't wait to reap the savings on my utility bills too! Skylight were installed by my local Velux dealer who did a wonderful job.

Had a Verlux that failed from being ok and replaced with a new one. Really good quality and now a vinyl frame instead of wood. Happy with the purchase.

Installed two new VELUX FSC06 skylights with solar powered blackout shades. Love them!! They bring in so much natural light into our living room now that I hardly ever have to turn on lamps in the room. Both shades can be programmed to open and close together. Wonder why I waited so long to add this beautiful addition to our home!

Replaced an old, leaky skylight with this high quality product. Very pleased with my choice!

These 2 units were purchased as equivalent sized replacement for older failed Velux units. The original units had wood clad interior, very nice looking. These have white vinyl interior trim, which is not explained in the description on line. However, they do look nice. They were not quite an exact replacement, and we did have to cut back the shingle roofing about an inch on all sides to accommodate the flange (deck mount). Also, the flashing kit isn't really designed for replacement, just for new installation, so we had to modify that application, but I'm confident it will work fine and has so far proved watertight in the recent rainstorms here in the PNW springtime.

Installed 2 replacement skylights within 5 hours. Very well done and looks great. Glad to get rid of the wood frames and the old type glass. These are much cleaner looking and adds a great deal of light to the room.

My roofer recommended replacing my original 20-25 year old Velux skylights when I decided to install a new roof. I was very pleasantly surprised at the affordability of replacing my seven skylights, and also with how quickly the crew was able to install them, even with a minor adjustment to the depth of the interior mating surface. ("Thickness" of new skylight was slightly more than old skylight requiring a half-inch trim of interior surface) Bottom line: I'm very happy with the design, quality and installation of my new Velux fixed skylights and would highly recommend them.

Had roof replaced and had roofing company replace our old sun beaten plexiglass skylight with Velux skylight and the incoming light is still amazing! Noticed the sun coming through doesn't have the sun heat coming through so I feel that our living area will not be affected by it, so no fading or heating up the area from the sun.

These skylights were installed to replace old skylights. So much nicer than our old fogged skylights! Allows natural sunlight in, gives the room an open feeling and saves us from turning on lights!

My old Velux skylights lasted 29 years! We had to replace them with Velux as quality is very important!

I really like these windows. I bought 2 and wish i could have put in 8. They allow a ton of light in and work smoothly. Tip - FOr the frim i used 1x material and planed it down to 1/2 to slip in like the sheetrock would. this was on a rafter roof. Also on a rafter roof install don't forget to drill the proper amount and size of holes above and below skylight so the roof still vents from the eve to the ridge. I think this is a problem for many skylight leaks that actually are condensation issues due to improper installation.

It is amazing the difference light can add to a room. It wish i would have done it sooner. The installers made it look like it was always there , they were great, left the area clean and were very considerate about not making a mess. i absolutely would recommend them.

My contractor installed it for us and told us it was very easy to assemble. Also took his time to show us how to open the window when need it. Very happy to see how elegant they look.
