Gendarme-hat dormer: elegance and functionality
The gendarme-hat dormer adds character to traditional homes. Its curved roof, inspired by old-fashioned headdresses, adds a touch of elegance. It also allows generous amounts of natural light into the attic space.
The right proportions for every roof
For harmonious integration, each dormer must be proportionate to the roof and facade. WESER designs its models with these architectural balances in mind. As a result, they blend in perfectly with both classic and contemporary styles.
Gendarme Hat Dormer: Simplified installation
WESER dormers are made up of several components: sill, jambs, lintel and pediment. Their standardized dimensions make them easy to integrate with different types of joinery. An interlocking, gluing and keying system ensures fast, precise assembly. An expanding gasket is also supplied for optimum insulation. Laying advice
Handling and safety
To facilitate handling, all elements except the sill are fitted with lifting anchors. Their weight sometimes requires special equipment during installation. This precaution ensures safe, risk-free installation for workers.
Durability and low maintenance
Made from reconstituted stone, WESER skylights are stained and waterproofed throughout. This design guarantees long-lasting colorfastness and requires no special maintenance.
An attractive, durable choice
A WESER gendarme-hat dormer combines tradition and modernity. It enhances your roof, while improving interior light. Installation is affordable, and its longevity ensures a long-term investment.
