LANTERN DETAILS
Our roof lanterns are designed to project light down into an enclosed space, making them ideal for new extensions, orangery’s, or to transform an area of the house which has a flat roof.
Each individual bespoke roof lantern is manufactured in-house, in our workshop in Akeley, Buckinghamshire. We can liaise with the on-site building team to advise how to prepare for the roof lanterns installation, attend site, measure the opening and install the bespoke roof lantern when manufacture is complete. Our experienced, technical team structurally guarantees all of our lanterns.
The classic range is the more cost effective option than our skyline range. The classical range is available with or without traditional finials, and also has the option of being supplied shaped with two gable shaped frames at the front and back of the lantern creating truly bespoke appearance. The skyline range is a little more expensive and has far sleeker design. You find yourself looking through it, rather than at it. Additional features are available via request.
