The below videos will assist you in understanding each product application. After deciding which concept will best fit your application, fill out the faxable quote sheet and send back to us so we can quote your project.

1. Lean-To Enclosure

The Retractable Lean-To Enclosure concept is used when a back wall or rear structural support is in place. The product can be built to front wall heights of up to 16’ tall and up to 22’ deep from the back wall with unlimited bays in length. With a structural beam, the design can increase in depth. An increase in depth may cause the pitch to be increased to a 3/12 pitch.

2. Free Standing Enclosure

A Retractable Free Standing Enclosure concept is used when a site is level and parallel. The free standing system can span up to 34’ wide when a 3/12 pitch or greater is used. The side walls can be up to 12′. The length of the enclosure can run as long as you would like based on many custom design options. The free standing concept allows the floor to be the only structural support.

3. Back to Back Enclosure

A Retractable Back to Back Enclosure design requires a structural perimeter where the system will roll and a center structural beam, which is supplied by the client. With 2- lean-to systems at the 24′ maximum span & a 3/12 pitch, the width can be up to 50′ with the center beam. A custom motor system(s) can be designed.

4. Lean-To Skylight (with optional Rolling Walls)

A Lean-To Skylight (with optional rolling walls) allows the roof to open up when the walls can stay closed or vice versa. The product can be built to front wall heights of up to 16′ tall and up to 22′ deep from the back wall with unlimited bays in length. An increase in depth may cause the pitch to be increased to a 3/12 pitch. The perimeter structural steel sub-structure band where the enclosures attach are to be installed by the client. It is often steel with a LVL facing. The skylight systems normally require a custom built motor system(s) designed and built by Roll-A-Cover.

6. Multi-Tiered Enclosure

A Multi-Tiered Enclosure is a grouping of lean-to and skylight enclosure products and allows for far greater spans. We can also build systems that have several of each for even greater spans. The perimeter structural steel sub-structure band where the enclosures attach are to be installed by the client. It is often steel with a LVL facing. The skylight systems normally require custom built motor systems designed and built by Roll-A-Cover. The enclosure systems may require a 3/12 pitch or greater based on the final design and load requirements. This design allows for a 34′ wide skylight and 2- lean-to systems with depths of 22′ for a total width of 78-80′. The length can go several hundred feet with a custom design layout.

7. Free Standing Skylight (w/ Gutter System & optional Rolling Walls)

This is a design concept for an area between two buildings. The system would require a steel structural support system (by the client) with design considerations on the side walls for drainage and flashing. This style enclosure allows an area to be enclosed without fastening to either side building. The free standing system can span up to 34′ wide when a 3/12 pitch or greater is used. The length can go several hundred feet long with a custom design. The perimeter structural steel sub-structure band where the enclosures attach are to be installed by the client. It is often steel with a LVL facing. The skylight systems normally require a custom built motor system(s) designed and built by Roll-A-Cover.

8. Lean-To Enclosure (with open gables and set between two buildings)

A Lean-To Enclosure (with open gables set between two buildings) is a design concept for an area between two buildings where you are able to lean the enclosure against one of the two. This is used when a back wall or structural support is in place. The side walls or gable end walls can be open with or without glass. The lean-to skylight system can span up to 22′ in depth when a 3/12 pitch or greater is used. The length can go several hundred feet long with a custom design layout. The perimeter structural steel sub-structure band where the enclosures attach are to be installed by the client. It is often steel with a LVL facing. The skylight systems normally require custom built motor system(s) design and built by Roll-A-Cover. An infill glazed system with fixed walls or rolling walls can be designed under the steel on either end.

9. Lean-To Enclosure (with end walls touching buildings)

A Lean-To Enclosure (with end walls touching buildings) concept is used when back and side walls or a structural support is in place and no gable side walls are needed. The product can be built to front wall heights of up to 16’ tall and 22’ deep from the back wall with unlimited bays in length. An increase in depth may cause the pitch to be increased to a 3/12 pitch. The side walls require custom counter flashing details by others. Commercial doors can be designed within non-rolling bays. A custom motor system(s) can be designed for the lean-to system.

10. Rolling Wall System

The rolling wall systems require a parallel site and can be manufactured up to 24′ tall with walls that can be built up to 2′ wide per bay with the common width per bay at 7′ wide. In comparison to a bi-fold wall system, our walls do not utilize valuable floor space when opened or closed. The rolling walls stay on the same side to side plane for ease of operating and floor functionality. The length of our wall systems with custom bay layouts can go for hundreds of feet.

11. Multi-Tiered Enclosure w/ Suncovers

This grouping of lean-to and suncover skylight enclosure products allows for far greater spans. With the suncover systems, the rafters stay in place and the roof panels roll up or down and stack within the bays. The sub-structure will require steel supports with LVL face coverings, which is supplied by the client. The skylight systems normally require custom built motor system(s) designed and built by Roll-A-Cover. 

12. Fixed Skylights

We also offer a variety of fixed skylight enclosures. We can build the systems modular for a quicker install process or as a knocked down system. There are no standard sizing models for fixed skylights so please send us your design plans with elevation details for pricing.
