What is meant by a mobile roof?
Movable roofs are constructed of aluminum, with polycarbonate, bi-panel, or glass sliding panels. They can be moved manually or motorized. Ideal for airtight enclosures on roofs, attics, and more.
A Mobile Roof or a Fixed Roof is an enclosure system that we can incorporate into your home or business to optimize your existing space.
The difference between sliding roofs and fixed roofs is that the former are movable, allowing the space to be left uncovered . Sliding roofs can be opened manually or motorized.
Throughout our history of installing retractable roofs in Dénia, we can confirm that many clients choose this option to enjoy a terrace during the winter. In addition to providing extra light, you’ll have a much warmer room thanks to the effect the heat exerts on the glass.
The material used in exterior carpentry is aluminum, which offers numerous advantages when executing projects of this type. Despite inclement weather, it does not rust and allows for surface treatment, whether lacquered or anodized. It also withstands solar radiation, so the profiles do not deteriorate. Maintenance is practically nonexistent due to the material’s non-porosity. At our company specializing in retractable roofs in Dénia, we guarantee that aluminum is a recyclable and non-combustible material, which reduces toxic emissions in the event of a fire.
Due to its lightness, it can be easily adapted to the needs of each project. There is a wide variety of openings to ensure the creation of open spaces, or fixed glazing is also possible. As you can see, the aluminum profiles can be installed anywhere without compromising the stability of the structure. At Mk Toldos, we specialize in the manufacture and installation of awnings for both individuals and businesses. Our qualified professionals guarantee personalized advice and quality results in every project.
ADVANTAGES OF MOBILE ROOFS
- Brightness: Movable roofs (especially glass ones) are capable of creating very bright areas due to their transparency.
- Amortization of outdoor spaces: they allow you to enjoy the great benefits of the outdoors by being able to open and close so easily.
- Waterproofing and tightness: prevent the passage of water and moisture, making it possible to place furniture or appliances safely.
- Functionality: Unlike fixed roofs, mobile roofs have no limitations in terms of space, size, or surface area. They can be installed in almost any area.
- Easy installation: Since they do not require any type of construction, installation is really easy and quick.
Most retractable roofs, except for those that are not transparent, such as polycarbonate, allow you to enjoy the outside view. They also provide greater thermal and acoustic insulation. They bring natural light into any room and create a greater sense of spaciousness.
There is also the option of sandwich panels. Are you familiar with this type of roofing? It’s a lightweight panel composed of two pre-coated steel plates and intermediate polyurethane foam insulation. It stands out for its easy installation and excellent insulation capacity. It is also considered the best enclosure system for warehouse roofs, terraces, prefabricated buildings, and modular systems. One of the great properties of sandwich panels is their excellent thermal insulation capacity thanks to the polyurethane foam in the core. Depending on the density and thickness, it will provide greater or lesser thermal insulation, making it an ideal material for protecting any room from both cold and heat.
