Professional Chicagoland Velux Skylight Installers
Velux Skylights are perfect for visually expanding areas such as hallways, stairwells, and other closed-in, dark spaces in your Chicagoland home. They provide an economical choice in creating a spacious home that is filled with natural light. At Matrix Exteriors, we offer a complete system of complementary products and accessories for any skylight solution — from installation right down to the finishing touches.
When most people think of a skylight they envision a fixed panel skylight. Modern skylights have options for built-in blinds and the ability to open and allow fresh air in your home. These “fresh air” skylights come in electric, solar-powered and manual models. We also install custom-sized skylights that can span up to 10 feet, allowing you to double the square footage of a standard skylight — without losing thermal efficiency.
Whether you want to add Velux Skylights or replace existing skylights in your Chicagoland home, the professional craftsmen at Matrix Exteriors have the skills and experience to properly install the best quality skylights on the market.

Silicon dioxide makes Neat® glass exceptionally smooth. In fact, it’s much smoother than ordinary glass so water disperses evenly (sheets off), and evaporates quickly, greatly reducing water spotting. Reduce unwanted outside noise by up to 25% less than a standard double pane glass, and up to 50% less than a plastic skylight.

Velux Room Darkening Skylight Shades
Double pleated room darkening skylight shades are solar powered or manually operated, and feature blackout cloth with a honeycomb structure that are energy-efficient and have a sleek design.
Velux Light Filtering Skylight Shades
No longer is direct sunlight an issue with the light filtering solar skylight shade. Soft, diffused light is all that will enter your room.
VELUX offers single-pleat and flat fabric skylight blinds in both solar and manual operation.
For solar skylight shades, a solar cell unit is discretely integrated into the control bar, powers the roller blind, which operates even at non-daylight hours. The shade comes with a keypad for simple operation.
Velux Blackout Skylight Shades
Skylight blackout shades can convert day into night, blocking even the brightest sunlight, which makes it ideal for rooms that require total room darkening, such as bedrooms.
