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.

The Antique Black cast iron version is suitable for external use. The Polished Lacquered version is best suited to interiors or sheltered external locations where the polished finish will be protected from weathering. The Polished Brass version is suited to interior and semi-exposed locations. For external applications on exposed elevations, the Antique Black finish is the recommended specification.
Yes. All our mild steel brackets are supplied in either silver or black zinc plate. This coating protects the metal however, both will need painting prior to installation.
We have chosen to use zinc plating for two reasons; firstly that it is a more environmentally friendly than galvanising and secondly that it does not block up the threaded part of the rise and fall cups in the way that galvanising does.
A hit and miss vent has a sliding plate on the back of the grille that can be opened, partially restricted, or closed entirely without removing the vent from the wall. This allows airflow to be controlled from inside the building, making it suitable for underfloor void ventilation and through-wall ventilation where adjustable airflow is needed.
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.
Yes. Decorative cast iron and brass ventilation grilles of this pattern were widely used in Victorian and Edwardian buildings, and like-for-like replacements are generally accepted by conservation officers for listed building works. We can provide product specifications and material details to support listed building consent applications if required.
A corner hopper head collects rainwater from two gutters running at right angles and channels it into a single downpipe. They are typically required at internal roof valleys, on hipped roofs, and wherever two runs of gutter converge at a corner. The Regent H1A is designed specifically for this application and is sized to suit the most common gutter profiles.
It is possible for us to supply towel warmers with an electric heating element in them. The Electrad system is a unique system available to us, that enables independent heating of towel rails and radiators via the properties electrical system.
