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.

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.
We are able to place dates and initials and insignia onto most of our flat faced rainwater hopper heads.
The satin chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder opener is available in multiple sizes. The telescopic mechanism adjusts to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. For a full list of available sizes, visit tuscanfoundry.com or call 0333 987 4452.

Tuscan Foundry supplies screw-jack rooflight openers in polished brass, satin chrome, and polished chrome finishes. Options include telescopic hand-winder openers in 150mm, 250mm, and 300mm sizes, fixed screw-jack stays, and pole-operated handles for high-level rooflights. All are designed for timber-framed rooflights and skylights.
A hit and miss vent has a sliding plate on the reverse of the grille that can be moved to open or close the ventilation apertures. This allows airflow to be regulated without removing or replacing the grille. The vent can be fully open, partially open, or fully closed depending on ventilation requirements.
Prices for our rooflight openers are shown on each product page. If you need multiple items, have a specific project in mind, or want to discuss compatibility, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form at tuscanfoundry.com and we will be happy to assist.
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.
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.
