Roofing Systems and Patio Covers
Structural Polycarbonate Roof
Brings in The Natural Light While Filtering Out the Hot Sun
All framing is made from strong maintenance free aluminum. Our proprietary design, the large glazing beams used in Skyview are thoroughly tested… your assurance that your new polycarbonate roof will hold the snow. It’s a sound investment that adds value to your home.
The Northlander™ Skyview polycarbonate roof utilizes strong, multi-walled polycarbonate panels. These panels have a range of solar tints that block damaging UV rays while allowing various levels of light transmission onto your deck or into your room enclosure.
Insulated Roofing Panels
PanelCraft™ Insulated Panels
This technological marvel is made using two aluminum skins bonded to a stabilizing core material. These “sandwich” panels are incredibly strong. Use them on your patio room or as a stand alone cover for your patio. Rely on PanelCraft™ aluminum panels to provide protection from the sun, rain and snow. Enjoy outdoor gatherings or just relax in your favourite patio lounge chair on a hot summer day without worrying about the sun’s harsh effects.
PanelCraft™ aluminum roof panels provide attractive and maintenance free protection for your patio enclosure, deck or sun porch. Installed as a carport, PanelCraft™ keeps you from getting wet or tripping through snow as you get the groceries from the car to the house, as well as giving your car shelter.
PanelCraft™ polystyrene (“foam”) core panels are best of breed. They feature our unique Krystal Kote clear protective finish and a high density foam core. PanelCraft™ foam panels are built to withstand our Canadian snow loads with the engineering to prove it.

Glazing Sheets That Lock Together
Our Northlander™ Skyview Quick Cover system is easy to install. The ⅝″ thick (16mm) glazing sheets are four feet wide. Sheets are joined together with a polycarbonate base rail and cap, typically clear in colour. The cap snaps down over the base which hides the screws, provides a clean flush appearance and a water resistant seam. It mounts on existing aluminum, steel, or wood frame work. It is great for re-glazing solariums and conservatories
If your joists are spaced 24 inches apart, you may be able to install the aluminum base rails directly on to them. Often you will run horizontal strapping (purlins) spaced 24″ to 36” apart. Refer to manufacturers load table for purlin spacing, available on installation tab.
