Emergency hatches and roof ventilation
The Scalabros emergency and roof ventilation hatches represent one of the most advanced solutions available in the field of components for industrial and transport vehicles.
Safety and Comfort Made in Italy
Scalabros hatches are entirely manufactured in Italy and engineered to meet the highest safety and quality standards. All models comply with European regulations ECE R107 and ECE/UN No.118, ensuring durability, reliability, and optimal airflow even under the most demanding operating conditions.
Thanks to a design engineered down to the smallest detail, each hatch ensures excellent interior ventilation, a reduction in energy consumption, and enhanced safety for passengers in case of emergency. The manual or electric versions, available in multiple sizes, can open up to 14 cm, providing superior ventilation compared to standard market solutions.

Custom Engineering and Certified Materials
Every component is designed by our R&D department, where technology and know-how come together to create custom solutions for buses, minibuses, trains, RVs, and special vehicles. The use of lightweight and durable materials — such as UV-resistant ABS, tempered glass, aluminum, and PMMA — allows for optimized weight without compromising structural strength.
The Scalabros emergency exit patent makes it possible to integrate different types of lids, from double glass to impact-resistant polycarbonate, as well as aluminum or sheet metal versions, adapting to any type of vehicle. The focus on thermal efficiency ensures insulation and comfort, reducing heat loss and improving the internal microclimate.
Manual and Electric Versions
The manual hatches feature ergonomic, simple, and safe opening systems, ideal for public or industrial vehicles where maintenance and reliability are top priorities. The 12V or 24V electric versions, on the other hand, are the perfect choice for high-end vehicles such as tourist coaches or next-generation RVs, where comfort and automation offer significant added value.
The electric motors used are approved according to ECE/UN No. 10-05 regulations and ensure smooth, consistent movement over time. All versions can be equipped with integrated sensors or controls for intelligent ventilation and safety management.
Aerodynamic Solutions and Functional Design
Beyond safety, Scalabros pays special attention to aerodynamics and the aesthetic integration of its hatches. Their shapes are designed to reduce air resistance and vibrations while driving, improving vehicle stability and minimizing noise. The result is a lightweight, discreet product that blends seamlessly into the vehicle’s roof.
Applications Across Multiple Sectors
The Scalabros emergency and ventilation hatches are used in a wide range of vehicles: passenger buses and minibuses, motorhomes and caravans, trains, agricultural and industrial vehicles, as well as boats and urban service vehicles. Each sector has its own specific requirements, yet all share a common need that our hatches meet: certified safety and high-quality Made in Italy manufacturing.
In tourist coaches, they improve natural ventilation and passenger comfort; in RVs, they ensure airflow and thermal insulation; in agricultural and earthmoving vehicles, they provide resistance to heavy stress and demanding conditions.
Innovation and Sustainability
Scalabros’ focus goes beyond technical performance: every stage of production is guided by environmental sustainability. The use of recyclable materials, low-impact manufacturing processes, and continuous improvement of assembly technologies help reduce waste and energy consumption, fully aligned with the company’s philosophy of combining innovation with responsibility.
Ongoing research into new materials and aerodynamic solutions has led to the development of hatches up to 8 kg lighter than traditional models, without compromising strength or insulation performance. This achievement reflects Scalabros’ ability to anticipate market needs and offer advanced, efficient, and sustainable products.
Made in Italy, Worldwide
Thanks to an international distribution network, Scalabros hatches are now installed on vehicles in numerous countries around the world. Their recognized quality and the ability to customize each project according to client requirements have made our products a trusted choice for leading OEM manufacturers and operators in both public and private transportation.
