Features to know about

Fits Standard Openings Without Guesswork

Finding a replacement that lines up with an existing cutout can stall a repair, especially when exact specs are unclear. This garnish is built for a 16" x 26" cutout with a 18-1/2" x 28-1/2" flange, so it aligns with common opening sizes and provides full interior coverage. You can focus on matching the opening instead of chasing exact model specs.

Cleans Up Exposed Ceiling Edges

After removing a skylight, exposed foam and wood around the opening can leave the interior looking unfinished. This garnish installs on the inside to cover those rough edges and sits flush against the ceiling. The result is a clean, finished look instead of visible construction materials.

Maintains Clearance Inside the Opening

Interior trim that sits too high can interfere with the skylight above or reduce usable space. With an approximate 4" bubble height, this garnish is shaped to nest without contacting the skylight when measurements are verified. You keep the intended clearance without unwanted contact points.

Softens Light Entering the Interior

Direct light through a skylight can create glare and uneven brightness inside. The white polycarbonate construction diffuses incoming light as it passes through the garnish. This creates a more even light spread instead of harsh direct exposure.

Requires Separate Installation Hardware

Missing hardware during installation can slow things down if you're not prepared. This garnish installs using 1" screws, which are not included, and some people add butyl tape (sold separately) inside the flange. That tape can help block water from getting inside, while others skip it so any skylight leak shows up right away instead of being hidden. Having your materials ready and knowing how you want to seal it avoids delays once you start.
