CoverLite Skylight Protection Cover

Introducing CoverLite

Made from strong Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), it helps prevent falls while still allowing natural light to pass through. Each unit is just 12.6kg, making it easy to carry and install by one person.

CoverLite has a smart lattice design that fits skylights of different sizes. You can also link multiple panels together for larger areas. The fixing kit (sold separately) includes brackets, rivets, and straps to keep the cover secure and weatherproof.

It’s been fully tested and certified to meet industry safety standards, including ACR Red Book (Class B) and BS EN 1873. That means it can handle heavy impact and still stay in place.

Whether you’re working on new builds or repairs, CoverLite offers a fast, reusable, and reliable way to keep your team safe.

Key factors to consider when choosing skylight protection

Temporary safety cover is essential

Falls through fragile skylights remain one of the most common rooftop hazards. CoverLite provides a reliable, temporary solution for protecting skylight openings during roof maintenance and installation works.

Use the correct fixing method

Each CoverLite panel must be securely fastened using the approved fixing kit, which includes brackets, rivets, and adjustable straps. This ensures stability and weatherproofing during use.

Multiple panels must be installed correctly

To ensure complete skylight coverage, use CoverLite in a longitudinal direction only. Each panel requires its own set of fixings — they cannot share brackets with adjacent panels.

Yellow side up for visibility

Always install CoverLite with the high-visibility yellow side facing upward. This improves safety by clearly marking the protected area for rooftop workers.

Why CoverLite Makes a Difference

Temporary skylight protection is essential during rooftop work — but not all solutions offer the same safety, convenience, and reliability. CoverLite stands out by combining lightweight design, certified safety, and easy installation, unlike plywood boards or makeshift barriers.

Details That Make CoverLite Stand Out

Every component designed with rooftop safety in mind

GRP Lattice Construction

CoverLite is built from Glass Reinforced Plastic with a patented lattice structure — strong, durable, and designed to allow natural light to pass through while maintaining rooftop safety.

Lightweight & Easy to Handle

Each panel weighs just 12.6kg, making it easy to carry, transport, and install across any rooftop — even by a single worker.

Secure Bracket Fixing System

Each unit comes with a dedicated fixing pack containing 4x brackets, 4x rivets, and 4x reusable straps — ensuring a tight, weatherproof installation every time.

High Visibility Yellow Surface

The top surface of every CoverLite panel is bright yellow — maximising visibility and ensuring rooftop workers can easily identify skylight coverage zones.

Modular & Extendable

CoverLite panels can be installed in a longitudinal direction to protect larger skylights or grouped side-by-side for wider coverage — each panel fixed independently.

Weather-Sealed Components

All fixings are supplied with integral weather seals and tested for rooftop resilience — ensuring safety doesn’t come at the cost of leaks or long-term roof damage.
