    Duncan Raymond –

    I’ve installed VELUX skylights in my homes for more than 20 years, and I couldn’t be happier. They’re designed thoughtfully, installation is a breeze, and they really enhance the aesthetics. I’ve never experienced any leaks or problems with them at all

Flashing and roof compatibility

VELUX EDW flashing for tiled roofs

For suitable tiled roofs, pair the VSE M04 with VELUX EDW flashing. EDW flashing is designed for profiled roofing such as concrete or terracotta tiles and similar profiled roof materials.

Custom flashing for metal roofs

For metal roof profiles, use the matching VELUX Custom Flashing M04 Skylight for FS, VS, VSE and VSS 780 x 980mm skylights. Confirm whether your roof is corrugated, TrimDeck, Kliplok or another metal profile before ordering.

  • Minimum 15° pitch is required for VSE pitched roof skylights.
  • For roofs below 15° or flat roof situations, an inclined flashing detail to minimum 15° is recommended.
  • Backflashing or a back tray is strongly recommended for many corrugated, TrimDeck and Kliplok situations.
  • Confirm roof pitch, rafter spacing, roof profile, water flow and skylight orientation before ordering.

Suitable blinds for VSE M04

VELUX FSCH/FSLH blinds for VS, VSE and VSS

Choose the VS/VSE/VSS M04 780 x 980mm size option when ordering a blind for this skylight.

  • FSCH Solar Honeycomb Blackout: stronger room darkening, heat reduction and glare control.
  • FSLH Solar Translucent: softer filtered daylight while reducing glare.
  • Solar remote operation: convenient light control without a hard-wired blind power connection.

When to add a blind

Add a blind if the skylight is above a bedroom, bathroom, home office, TV area, kitchen bench or west-facing space where you want better privacy, heat control or softer daylight.

Compare VELUX M04 options

VSE M04 is the electric opening model. Depending on the room and budget, compare the fixed, manual and solar M04 alternatives.

Fixed daylight

VELUX FS M04 Fixed Skylight

Best when you want natural daylight only and ventilation is not required.

Manual opening

VELUX VS M04 Manual Opening Skylight

Best when you want daylight and fresh air with simple manual operation.

Solar opening

VELUX VSS M04 Solar Opening Skylight

Best when you want wireless powered ventilation without using a hard-wired skylight motor.

Installation and planning notes

Power and control

The VSE M04 includes a pre-installed motor, control system, rain sensor and wireless keypad. It is supplied with a 2 metre lead to plug into a power point, so power access should be confirmed before installation.

Roof and shaft planning

Installation planning should consider roof pitch, rafter spacing, roof profile, water flow, flashing type, shaft depth, plaster finishing and access for lifting a 36.6kg skylight.

Supply only

Supply-only is useful for builders, roofers and renovators who already have trades and electrical preparation arranged.

Supply and install

Homeowners often prefer full installation where the job requires roof preparation, flashing, shaft framing, plastering and coordination around power access.
