The FAKRO FGH-V Galeria Balcony Window provides a modern alternative to a dormer but its use is by no means restricted to contemporary designs. A Kent peg tile or plain tile roof with a 40° pitch is typical of those in which dormers are a common sight but the FGH-V is far lighter in weight, quicker to install and can normally be installed without planning consent. When closed it has the appearance of a standard roof window and its long glazing span enables a far higher amount of natural daylight to enter a room.
