A roof of glass

The Pigato is a glass roof veranda: 8.8mm laminated safety glass on an aluminium frame, so you get far more daylight than with polycarbonate, and a clear view of the sky.

A steel-reinforced gutter lets it span wide openings. It comes 4m to 7m wide (about 13ft to 23ft, joined for wider runs) and 2.5m to 4m deep, in four colours. Close it in with glass sliding doors and it becomes a glass room. There is also the Pigato Plus+; ask your nearest showroom which one suits your space.

Common questions

See one firstVisit our showrooms in Dublin (Park West), Cork (Charleville), Galway (Tuam Road) and Carlow (Wexford Road Business Park).
Glass or polycarbonate roof?

Glass lets in far more light and gives a clear view of the sky. Polycarbonate is lighter and costs less.

What glass is the roof?

8.8mm laminated safety glass.

Is there a Pigato Plus+?

Yes. Ask your nearest showroom which of the two suits your space.

Can I add glass doors later?

Yes. The glass sliding doors fit new verandas and most existing ones, so you can start open and close it in later.

Do I need planning permission?

It depends on the size, height and position, so check with your local council before you order. We will give you the exact measurements to ask about.
