Velux VSE M04 Electric Opening Skylight 780x980mm

The VELUX VSE M04 is an electric opening skylight for pitched roofs, sized 780 by 980mm. The popular mid-size footprint makes it a strong fit for master bedrooms, kitchens and family rooms, where a generous window of daylight and quiet ventilation are both wanted. The motorised sash opens, closes and vents from an included wall-mounted remote keypad, so there is no handle to reach and no control rod to store.

What You Need To Complete Your Skylight Installation

To finish the installation you need the matching flashing and, for light control, a blind. Add the VELUX M04 custom flashing for a weathertight seal, and pair the window with a VELUX skylight blind for blackout or filtered light. Browse the full electric skylight range, or see all VELUX skylights.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this electric skylight need an electrician?

The VSE range is electric, so the window motor needs a power connection as part of installation. We recommend a licensed installer set the window up to the manufacturer instructions. Once installed, the included wall-mounted remote keypad controls open, close and vent, and the rain sensor handles wet weather automatically.

What size is this skylight?

The VSE M04 has an opening size of 780 by 980mm, one of the most popular sizes in the VSE range. It suits master bedrooms, kitchens and family rooms, where a balanced, generous window of daylight makes the room feel larger without needing a bigger roof opening.

Does it close automatically when it rains?

Yes. The VSE M04 has an integrated rain sensor that closes the skylight automatically when precipitation is detected. That means you can leave the window venting and not worry about a sudden shower, because the window will close itself and keep the room dry.

Can it be connected to a smart home system?

The VSE range can integrate with VELUX ACTIVE climate control systems for automated temperature and air quality management around the home. That lets the window respond to conditions automatically rather than waiting for you to press the remote.
