The Chrome (Satin) Rooflight Hand Winder Opener – Telescopic is a screw-jack operated rooflight opener finished in satin chrome. Designed for timber-framed rooflights and skylights, it delivers smooth, controlled ventilation with a contemporary brushed finish that complements modern kitchens, bathrooms, and utility spaces as readily as it suits traditional interiors. Available in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes to accommodate varying rooflight positions.
The unit features a threaded screw-jack barrel and a right-angle crank handle in satin chrome, with a telescopic shaft for positioning flexibility. It is straightforward to fit, secure in operation, and locks the rooflight at the chosen opening position without drift. Throw: 160mm. Suitable for use with Lumen Rooflights and compatible timber-framed skylights.
Commonly specified for conservatories and orangeries, this opener is equally well suited to kitchen extensions, garden rooms, and loft conversions where a rooflight positioned above a worktop or sink requires simple, safe operation from below. The satin chrome finish coordinates naturally with contemporary hardware and sanitary fittings.
Available in three sizes. For advice on sizing or compatibility, call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form on our website.

Yes. Cast iron rainwater goods are widely accepted by conservation officers and historic environment bodies as the appropriate material for listed buildings. Tuscan Foundry's hopper heads are manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460 specification and are suitable for all listed building classes. A linseed oil paint finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for conservation projects.
The H460 is well suited to Georgian, Regency, and Victorian buildings where a plain, undecorated rectangular hopper is the appropriate choice — particularly listed properties, conservation area buildings, and institutional or commercial buildings in historic town centres. Its clean, restrained form makes it equally appropriate on modern heritage-style construction where period accuracy is required without ornamental detail.
The opener is designed for use with Lumen Rooflights and compatible timber-framed skylights. The telescopic shaft and adjustable mounting bracket allow it to be fitted to a range of rooflight frames. If you have a specific rooflight model, call us on 0333 987 4452 to confirm compatibility.
The handle is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and most pole-operated rooflight and skylight systems. If you are unsure whether it suits your specific rooflight, call us on 0333 987 4452 and we can advise.

The Antique Black finish is cast iron with a blackened surface — the most historically accurate finish for cast iron ironwork and the most appropriate for the majority of heritage applications. Polished Lacquered is cast iron with a bright polished surface sealed with clear lacquer, suited to interiors and sheltered locations where polished ironwork is the specification. Polished Brass is solid polished brass throughout — the correct choice where existing building fittings are in brass or where a warm metal tone is required.
Yes. Polished brass ironmongery is historically appropriate for period buildings and is generally acceptable to conservation officers for listed building projects. If you require confirmation for your specific scheme, we are happy to advise — call 0333 987 4452.
