ROLLAMATIC ROOFS
Rollamatic Roofs, Inc. manufactures and installs operable skylight roof systems. Since 1958.
It was the late 1950’s. California was booming. Developers, led by Joseph Eichler, were building open-plan homes that let the outdoors in with open-air atriums and lots of glass.
Homebuilder David S. Miller loved the modern architecture, but wanted to add year-round livability to the popular atrium spaces. In 1958, he designed and built a fully automatic retractable roof for the center courtyard of a Diamond Heights house in San Francisco.
