Ease of Installation Saves Time and Money

Making things easier to use might seem like a simple idea, but in the world of custom skylights that’s often a difficult thing to do. The Major Industries team works hard to improve and enhance our system designs and manufacturing procedures, and have come up with a great way to save you installation time and money.

In the case of some smaller Guardian 275® pyramid skylights, like the ones shown, we can now provide you with partially assembled options, greatly reducing the amount of installation time required on a typical job. Pre-assembled options are also available for some translucent panel and glass single slope skylights, and don’t forget about our online store, where you can order select LightBasic™ single slope skylights from your desk, recliner, car or anywhere else you happen to be! And stay tuned to future emails for even more exciting news regarding pre-assembled systems!
For more information, contact our sales team at sales@majorskylights.com about these great money-saving options.

Project Spotlight - Skylights Illuminate PAST Innovation Lab

Major Industries recently provided a few Auburn® glass skylights for the PAST Foundation Innovation Lab in Columbus, Ohio. The PAST Foundation is made up of scientists and educators who work together to create programs for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) schools that focus on a learn-by-doing approach.
Auburn® Skylights

The newly renovated warehouse that's home for the Innovation Lab is divided into hands-on learning labs with flexible seating areas and access to the latest technology. WSA Studio designed the space, which has a central design feature - a large “agora” space that can accommodate overflow from adjacent classrooms and provides additional separate learning space. The highlight of the space are two large Auburn® glass single slope skylights that provide access to daylight for both the space itself and the adjoining rooms. Access to natural light, especially in a location such as this in the central part of a building, can make the space feel more inviting, and cut down on artificial lighting needs during peak use hours.

See You @ the AIA National Convention!

The 2016 AIA National Convention and Expo in Philadelphia is only a few days away, and we've been busy getting ready for the Expo with a new booth, some new samples and free give-aways. If you're headed to the convention, we encourage you to stop by our booth - #1922 - and check out what's new in skylights, wall systems and canopies. From translucent panel systems to glass and polycarbonate multi-wall, as well as mixed glazed systems, we have a daylighting solution that's sure to fit your needs.

Major is also participating in this year's Expo Chat program. By stopping by the booth for a 15 minute discussion about daylighting, and getting our verification code, you can earn Learning Units (four 15-minute chats add up to one LU - and you can get up to six total). No appointments are necessary, and you can chat about a number of topics from new products to the pros and cons of materials.

We hope that you're able to attend the convention this year, and look forward to seeing you at the show on May 19-21, 2016!
