Metal and tile roof compatibility
FCM 1430 for Tile, Corrugated, TrimDeck & Klip-Lok Roofs
FCM is a curb-mounted skylight. It sits on a correctly built kerb/upstand and the flashing integrates that raised base with the surrounding roof. That allows suitable FCM installations on both tiled and metal roofing when the detail is properly designed.
Tile RoofConcrete and terracotta tile roofs can be accommodated with a suitable kerb/upstand and custom flashing detail around the tile courses.
Corrugated MetalCustom Colorbond flashing can be formed for conventional corrugated roofing and the actual roof fall.
TrimDeckWider trapezoidal pans and ribs need a roof-profile-specific custom flashing detail.
Klip-LokConcealed-fix roofing can be integrated using a purpose-made flashing arrangement suited to the installed profile.

Pair FCM 1430 With the Matching Custom Flashing
VELUX specifies that FCM skylights require custom-made flashing. Central Skylights manufactures matching flashing for FCM 1430, allowing the skylight and roof-specific flashing to be ordered from one supplier.
For metal roofs, choose Corrugated, TrimDeck or Klip-Lok. For tiled roofs, the flashing and kerb/upstand need to coordinate with the surrounding concrete or terracotta tiles. Prefabricated and Flat Pack flashing options are available, with backflash where the roof detail calls for additional water management.

VELUX FCM 1430 Fixed Flat-Roof Skylight
FCM 1430 is a fixed, non-opening glass skylight for projects where natural daylight is the priority. Its slim rectangular footprint is useful where roof framing or room width makes a square skylight awkward.
VELUX specifies the FCM range for roof pitches from 0° to 60°. High-performance double glazing blocks approximately 70% of radiant heat and provides approximately 99% protection from harmful UV, while NEAT™ exterior coating helps reduce cleaning frequency.
Choose FCM 1430 When
- You want daylight without an opening function
- A narrow, compact daylight solution for tight roof and ceiling spaces
- Your roof can accommodate a raised kerb/upstand
- You want matching custom flashing for tile or metal roofing
- You want supply-only or a Melbourne installation option
Plan Before Ordering
- Check roof framing and available opening
- Identify tile or exact metal roof profile
- Confirm approximate roof pitch and water direction
- Plan the internal shaft and ceiling opening
- Plan lifting and access as skylight size increases
FCM 1430 Size, Glass Area & Daylight
FCM 1430 measures 460 × 870mm overall, with approximately 368 × 775mm of visible glass and around 0.29m² of visible glass area.
| VELUX size code | FCM 1430 |
|---|---|
| Overall skylight size | 460 × 870mm |
| Visible glass size | Approx. 368 × 775mm |
| Visible glass area | Approx. 0.29m² |
| Operation | Fixed / non-opening |
| Typical room fit | small hallways, ensuites and toilets, walk-in robes, pantries, compact laundries, small kitchens |
Daylight depends on the whole room. Shaft depth, shaft shape, ceiling height, room orientation, finishes and skylight position all affect the final result.
FCM 1430 for Tile & Metal Roofs
FCM 1430 requires a custom roof interface rather than a standard boxed flashing kit. The flashing should match the roof material, pitch, drainage direction and the kerb/upstand supporting the skylight.
Metal Roofs
- Corrugated Colorbond roofing
- TrimDeck roofing
- Klip-Lok roofing
- Other identifiable profiles by assessment
- Backflash where the roof detail requires it
Tile Roofs
- Concrete roof tiles
- Terracotta roof tiles
- Custom flashing around the raised FCM kerb/upstand
- Tile courses and drainage need to be coordinated
- Existing roof condition should be checked before cutting
VELUX recommends a slight pitch where practical. Although FCM is specified from 0°, approximately 3°–5° is recommended where possible to help reduce water ponding on the glass.
Kerb / Upstand, Orientation & Replacement Planning
FCM is curb-mounted. The skylight sits on a properly constructed kerb or upstand, and the flashing connects that raised base to the surrounding tile or metal roof.
Before Ordering
- Confirm FCM 1430 and 460 × 870mm
- Identify tile or exact metal roof profile
- Check approximate roof pitch
- Check roof framing and access
- Confirm kerb/upstand construction with the installer
Replacing an Old Dome?
- Measure the existing roof opening
- Measure the old kerb/upstand
- Photograph the existing flashing
- Measure the internal shaft/throat
- Do not assume the nominal FCM size is a drop-in replacement
Orientation: Portrait or landscape where the roof and flashing design allow.
Compare FCM 1430 With Nearby VELUX FCM Sizes
If 460 × 870mm is not quite right, compare nearby sizes before ordering. Roof framing and room proportions matter as much as the nominal glass area.

Can FCM 1430 be installed on a tile roof?
Yes. A suitable concrete or terracotta tile roof can accommodate FCM 1430 when the skylight is supported on the correct kerb/upstand and the custom flashing is detailed to work with the surrounding tiles and drainage.
Can FCM 1430 be installed on Corrugated, TrimDeck or Klip-Lok?
Yes, subject to a suitable roof and installation design. Central Skylights manufactures made-to-order flashing for these metal roof profiles.
Does FCM 1430 include flashing?
No. VELUX specifies custom-made flashing for FCM skylights. Central Skylights sells the matching FCM 1430 flashing separately in Prefabricated or Flat Pack formats.
Does FCM 1430 open?
No. FCM 1430 is fixed and intended for daylight. There is no same-size VCM/VCS opening model in the current Australian range, so compare a nearby opening size if ventilation is required.
Can FCM 1430 replace an old acrylic dome?
It can suit many acrylic-dome replacement projects, but compatibility depends on the existing roof opening, kerb dimensions, flashing, shaft and roof condition. Measure and photograph the existing installation before ordering.
Need ventilation?
FCM 1430 Is Fixed — Compare the Nearest Opening VELUX Size
There is no same-size VCM/VCS 1430 opening model in the current Australian range. If ventilation is important, compare the roof layout with a nearby opening size rather than assuming an opening version exists.

How I love the skylights!
Harding A –
Perfect fit. Great customer service. It went beyond what I had anticipated. Thanks
Roger A –
The ordering process was easy, and delivery was on time.
Elmer Z –
The only issue I encountered was with the seal that was stapled to the frame—two of the staples had gone through the seal, causing it to hang loosely. To fix this, I used double-sided tape to hold it securely in place, ensuring it stayed put when flipped during installation.
Walter H –
They delivered the order 3 days late, that’s terrible
Ryder –
The new Velux flat glass units have a significantly improved appearance
