Brass period rooflight handle opener for pole operated opening mechanisms.
Inc. Lumen Rooflights
The Brass Rooflight Opener Handle – 1520mm is a handmade pole-operated rooflight handle finished in polished brass, designed for use with timber-framed rooflights and skylights that require operation from floor level or from a distance. At 1520mm in length, it is suited to rooflights positioned above head height — common in stairwells, hallways, and double-height spaces in period and traditional buildings.
The handle is constructed with a turned hardwood grip and a polished brass shaft, terminating in a 15mm-diameter hook for engagement with a rooflight stay or fitting. The handmade construction gives each piece a considered, craft quality that suits heritage interiors. It is commonly specified alongside Lumen Rooflight systems but is compatible with any rooflight fitted with an appropriate catch or stay.
Frequently ordered alongside a coat hook, the handle doubles as a decorative wall feature when not in use — a practical consideration in entrance halls and period interiors. Suited to Georgian terraces, Victorian townhouses, country houses, listed buildings, and any project where the opening mechanism should remain visually consistent with the building’s character.

The School Board Airbrick suits Victorian and Edwardian institutional, civic, and residential buildings where the square-grid airbrick pattern was standard — including school buildings, civic halls, estate housing, terrace houses, and warehouses. It is also appropriate on listed buildings and conservation area properties as a like-for-like replacement for worn square-grid cast iron vents.
The Polished Lacquered finish suits buildings where period ironwork was finished bright rather than painted — formal entrance elevations, listed properties, and settings where the grille contributes to the decorative programme of the facade. It is appropriate for conservation specifications and high-specification heritage new build.
Prices are shown on each product page. For project quantities, specification advice, or a formal quotation, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.
The polished chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder is suited to contemporary, Georgian-revival, and high-specification interiors where a bright chrome finish is required to complement existing ironmongery. It is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and timber-framed skylights.
Available in two sizes: 225mm x 82mm (single airbrick course height) and 225mm x 150mm (double course height). Both sizes fit standard brick coursing positions and install flush into the wall face.
We do offer a range of Ogee patterned gutters in both straight and radius profiles. The straight profiles are much more common and as such cost less.
The Antique Black finish suits Victorian, Edwardian, and inter-war buildings where ventilation ironwork was painted rather than polished — estate houses, terrace housing, civic buildings, and rural properties. It is also correct for listed buildings and conservation area properties requiring like-for-like replacement of original ornamental cast iron vents.
The Iron Works Patterned Hit & Miss Vent suits Victorian and Edwardian buildings where decorative cast iron or brass ventilation grilles were part of the original specification — including terrace houses, civic buildings, churches, entrance halls, and estate properties. It is appropriate on listed buildings and conservation area properties as a like-for-like decorative vent replacement, and on new heritage-quality construction where period detailing is required.

Yes. The Louvre Airbrick is dimensioned to standard brick course openings and is suitable for direct replacement of worn, broken, or missing original cast iron louvre grilles. If you are unsure of the size required, measure the opening in the brickwork rather than the existing damaged grille.
