VELUX VSE S06 Electric Opening Skylight – 1140×1180mm
The VELUX VSE S06 is the largest current VSE — designed for projects where you want a broad sky view, strong daylight and substantial powered ventilation. It gives you natural light and fresh-air ventilation with a pre-installed electric motor, wireless keypad, automatic rain sensor and removable insect screen. It is designed for 15°–90° pitched roofs and is supplied with a 2m lead that plugs into a standard GPO.
Where VSE S06 Makes the Most Sense
VSE S06 is particularly well suited to large kitchens, living rooms, dining areas, extensions and major daylight zones. The key reason to choose this size is not simply the outside frame dimension — it is the balance between roof opening, internal glass area, daylight and usable ventilation.
Strong Reasons to Choose VSE S06
- The largest current vse — designed for projects where you want a broad sky view, strong daylight and substantial powered ventilation.
- Remote operation is useful when the skylight is above a bath, bench, stairwell or deep shaft.
- The rain sensor adds protection when the skylight is left open for ventilation.
- Electric operation suits renovations and new builds where power can be planned in advance.
Compare Before Ordering
Choose M06 or M08 if a 1140mm-wide frame is too large for the roof structure or room scale.
Plan the Power Point Before the Shaft Is Finished
VSE comes complete with its electric motor, control system, rain sensor and a supplied 2 metre lead with plug. The plug connects to a standard GPO, which can be located in the roof space.
What VELUX Supplies
- Pre-installed electric motor
- Control system
- Wireless keypad
- Internally mounted rain sensor

What the Project Needs

Which Flashing Should You Use With VSE S06?
Flashing is sold separately. The VSE S06 must be paired with the correct S06 flashing for the actual roof material, profile and pitch.
Best for suitable tiled roofs and low-profile metal roofs such as conventional corrugated iron within the approved pitched-roof range.
- Concrete / terracotta tile
- Conventional corrugated iron
- Factory VELUX system
- Exact S06 size required
Choose a roof-specific flashing when standard EDW is not the right solution for the metal roof profile or project detail.
- Corrugated custom applications
- TRIMDEK®
- KLIP-LOK®
- Prefabricated or Flat Pack
- Low-pitch raised details assessed project by project
Daylight Without Basic Single-Glazing Performance
VSE uses high-performance double glazing with a laminated inner pane, argon-filled cavity, Low-E³ coating and NEAT™ outer coating. VELUX lists approximately 80% radiant heat block for the complete skylight and approximately 99% harmful UV block.

VELUX VSE S06 FAQs
Does VSE S06 need a power point?
Yes. VELUX supplies a 2m lead and plug for connection to a standard GPO, which may be located in the roof space.
Does it close when it rains?
Yes. The internally mounted rain sensor closes the skylight automatically when rain is detected while it is open.
Is flashing included?
No. Order size-matched flashing separately after confirming the roof profile and pitch.
Can it be used below 15°?
VELUX states that pitched-roof skylights below 15° need to be raised to 15° and custom flashed. Project conditions and compliance must be checked before proceeding.
Can I fit a solar blind?
Yes. Use the matching S06 FSCH or FSLH blind made for VS/VSE/VSS opening skylights.
What warranty applies?
VELUX Australia currently lists 10 years on skylights, flashings and glazing, and 3 years on blinds, accessories and electric controls.
Order the Skylight, Flashing & Blind as One Compatible System
VSE S06 is only one part of the roof package. Confirm the roof profile, pitch, GPO location and optional blind before installation day so the correct skylight and accessories arrive together.
