Maximum height and light

Roof Lanterns

Roof lights or lanterns are an incredible way of filling a room with light and bringing a real feeling of height and space to a room. Our roof lights can be installed into new openings above extensions, offices or on newly built homes, or they can be used to replace existing tired or leaking roof lights. Our system is cleverly designed with an integrated sill to allow for installation on almost any roof meaning our system will be the perfect solution for your project. Within the Roof lantern range, we divide our offering into Contemporary, traditional, oversized or bespoke shapes. We can offer an almost unlimited range of RAL colours, self-cleaning solar control glass types, and a wide range of opening roof vents for all of these roof lantern types. Please see below for our complete offering.

Intricate Rafter Design

Traditional Style Roof Lantern

Our largest standard roof lantern range has been designed to complement traditional English architecture. It is available in three standard configurations, including a six, ten, and twelve-panel roof light. Our traditional roof lantern features more structural bars known as rafters, creating a more visual divide between the indoor and outdoor space, similar to the timber roof lanterns found on more traditional properties of yesteryear. Our standard roof lantern range is available in aluminium, which closely imitates the sizes and proportions of traditional timber lanterns without the drawbacks associated with timber.







Standard Sizes

Our traditional roof lanterns are available in a range of standard sizes, which we keep in stock; bespoke sizes are available; however, they carry a longer lead time.

Minimalist Design

Contemporary Style Roof Lantern

Our Contemporary range is our most popular. And it’s clear to see why. Apart from its exquisitely stylish slim profile, only hip rafters are used in this spectacular design, leaving all four planes completely clear, affording superior uninterrupted views.

Profile

Roof Vent

 

Our range of aluminium roof lanterns suits both modern and traditional settings. For contemporary extensions or new builds, opt for square aluminium profiles. If you're adding an orangery to a more classical space, choose a Victorian profile with finials for that extra touch of elegance.

Unlike past glass roof products, our roof lanterns offer exceptional thermal efficiency. With options for up to 50mm triple glazing and thermally broken frames, you can achieve U-values as low as 0.7w/m². This makes glass roof lanterns an ideal alternative to conservatory roofs, creating a year-round usable, sunlit space.

Lighting can be a challenge when creating a spacious, open-plan kitchen or living area. Roof lanterns provide an ingenious solution by allowing copious amounts of light to pour through the ceiling of your property.

Glass Options

With many of our roof lanterns, we offer the flexibility of Celsius performance glass. You can customise them to meet specific needs, such as enhanced heat reflection for south-facing aspects, improved U-values for thermal performance, UV protection for your furniture and fabrics, self-cleaning glass for easy maintenance, and reduced visible light transmission for added comfort.

Glass is more than what meets the eye. When it comes to roof glass it is designed to provide a blend of heat reflection and thermal insulation. This glass incorporates Low E softcoats, Solar control coating, warm edge spacers and argon gas in its structure. These features help regulate the passage of light, UV rays and heat through the glass unit. By selecting the type of glass, harmful UV rays can be reduced by as much as 91%, protecting furniture and fabrics from sun-induced fading. Additionally, with self-cleaning technology included as a feature, maintenance for our glass is kept to a minimum.

Low Maintenance

Self-cleaning glass

Our Solar Blue and Solar Neutral Glass feature a self-coating with a microscopic film. This self-cleaning glass helps natural light and rainwater break down, allowing dirt and grime to wash away easily.

The self-cleaning technology harnesses both rainwater and UV light from the sun to effectively tackle dirt and grime that builds up on the window exterior, reducing the need for cleaning.

Available in Self Cleaning Solar Neutral and Self Cleaning Solar Blue options.

Ideal Comfort

Solar control glass

The solar control glass we offer effectively reflects more than 60% of the sun's energy. This characteristic helps prevent conservatories and rooms with our Roof Lanterns from getting excessively hot during the summer months. Furthermore, it reduces glare to create an indoor environment.

By combining emissivity glass with argon gas filling, our Atlas solar control glass cuts thermal transmission in half compared to regular double-glazing options. This not only leads to energy savings but also ensures that glazed roof rooms stay warmer in winter.

Our range includes Self-Cleaning Solar Neutral and Self-Cleaning Solar Blue options for your convenience. For performance, there is also a choice called Sunshield Blue, which reflects up to 82% of the sun's solar energy.
Triple glazing can be used to lower the U values of the centre pane to 0.5W/m2k.
