The Brass Rooflight Hand Winder Opener – Telescopic is a screw-jack operated rooflight opener finished in polished brass. Designed for timber-framed rooflights and skylights, it combines mechanical simplicity with a warm, traditional aesthetic that sits comfortably in period and heritage interiors. Available in 150mm and 300mm sizes, the telescopic mechanism adjusts to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements.
The unit is constructed with a threaded screw-jack barrel and a right-angle crank handle, both in polished brass. The telescopic shaft allows positioning flexibility, and the mounting bracket provides a secure, direct fix to the rooflight frame. Throw: 165mm. Suitable for use with Lumen Rooflights and compatible timber-framed skylights.
This opener is well suited to period houses, Georgian and Victorian terraces, conservation area properties, traditional orangeries, and any project where a brass finish is specified to complement existing ironmongery or architectural metalwork. It is one of the most widely used rooflight openers in the Tuscan Foundry range.
Available in 150mm and 300mm sizes. For information on compatibility, fitting, or to discuss your project, call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form on our website.

Our cast iron hopper heads are available with 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round outlets, 75mm, 100mm and 125mm square outlets, and 100x75mm, 125x100mm and 150x125mm rectangular outlets, to match the downpipe already on site or specified for the project.
Polished chrome has a bright mirror finish, while satin chrome has a brushed, low-sheen appearance. Both are available in the telescopic hand winder range. The finish choice typically depends on the ironmongery specification for the project.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available in a standard primed and black-painted finish, ready for on-site topcoats. Heritage colour finishes and factory-applied linseed oil paint are available on request. Linseed oil paint is a vapour-permeable, period-appropriate finish particularly well suited to listed buildings and conservation area properties.
Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically correct choice for listed and period buildings, and a like-for-like cast iron replacement is generally accepted without objection by conservation officers. We manufacture to BS 460 for genuine heritage character and durability.

The Calnethorpe is designed for formal classical and Georgian elevations where scale and material authenticity matter — large townhouses, country houses, manor houses, and institutional buildings. It is also widely specified for new-build heritage projects where cast iron rainwater goods are required to conservation standard.
The H532 measures 560mm wide x 290mm deep x 305mm high, making it well suited to a broad, low-profile design suited to substantial roofs and box gutters on period commercial and civic buildings.
Yes. Churches and ecclesiastical buildings are one of our most common project types. We regularly supply large sand cast gutters, rectangular and square downpipes, and bespoke hopper heads for church restorations. Many churches have non-standard profiles that require copy casting. We work directly with architects, church fabric advisors, and quinquennial inspection surveyors. Historic England and many Diocesan Advisory Committees specify cast iron as the appropriate material for listed ecclesiastical buildings.
