The transformative power of VELUX skylights in hallways and staircases.
Just because they don't always have a view doesn't mean hallways and stairways don't need natural light. VELUX Skylight Systems and Sun Tunnel® Skylights can illuminate these often neglected spaces.
Flexible Placement
With a nimble reflective tube, VELUX Sun Tunnel Skylights can be placed where larger skylight systems can’t. This allows them to bring natural light into confined corridors and narrow passages.
Brighter Staircases
As a necessary thoroughfare in the home, staircases are a prime opportunity for natural light and fresh air. Illuminating these often dark and uninviting spaces can help them be easier to traverse and safer.
