The Brett Martin Classic 6-Pane Glass Roof Lantern is a double glazed aluminium roof lantern designed to provide natural daylight for flat roof extensions and living spaces. The 6-pane layout uses additional glazing bars to create a traditional lantern appearance while maintaining strong daylight transmission.
This roof lantern is commonly installed above kitchens, dining areas, and open plan rooms where a central glazed roof feature is required. The thermally broken aluminium frame and Low-E double glazing help reduce heat loss while maintaining clear views through the glass.
Roof Lantern Size Options
The 6-pane roof lantern is available in a range of standard sizes designed to suit common flat roof openings.
Lengths mm: 1500 to 3000
Widths mm: 1000 to 2000
Example size combinations include:
1500 × 1000
1800 × 1200
2000 × 1500
2500 × 1500
3000 × 2000
Smaller lanterns are often used above compact kitchen extensions or dining areas where a focused source of daylight is required.
Medium sizes are commonly installed in standard rear extensions where balanced daylight is required across the room.
Larger lanterns are used in open plan living spaces where a wider glazed roof feature helps distribute daylight across the entire area.
All sizes are based on external upstand dimensions, and bespoke sizes are also available where a project requires a non standard opening.
Frame Construction
The roof lantern uses a thermally broken aluminium frame designed for overhead glazing.
Aluminium provides strong structural support while allowing slim frame profiles that maximise the glass area. The thermal break helps reduce heat transfer between the interior and exterior of the building.
The aluminium frame is powder coated to provide resistance against weather exposure and long term durability.
Frame Colour Options
Frame colour combinations are available to match both interior finishes and external window frames.
White inside / White outside – RAL 9010 - Used where a consistent white finish is required inside and outside the building.
White inside / Anthracite grey outside – RAL 9010 / RAL 7016 - Used where a lighter interior finish is preferred with darker external window frames.
Anthracite grey inside / Anthracite grey outside – RAL 7016 - Used for modern extensions where darker frames are used throughout.
Black inside / Black outside – RAL 9005 - Used where a darker internal and external frame colour is preferred.
White inside / Black outside – RAL 9010 / RAL 9005 - Used where a neutral interior finish is required with a darker exterior appearance.
Glass Specification Options
The lantern uses Low-E insulated double glazed units designed for roof glazing applications.
Each glass unit includes:
- Toughened outer glass
- Low-E self cleaning coating
- Toughened inner pane as standard
The toughened outer pane provides strength and resistance against weather exposure. The self cleaning coating allows rainwater to help remove surface dirt from the glass.
A laminated inner pane option is also available.
Toughened inner pane – Used for standard roof lantern installations where toughened safety glass is suitable.
Laminated inner pane – Used where additional overhead protection is preferred. Laminated glass helps hold the pane together if damaged.
Glazing Tint Options
Two glazing tints are available to control daylight and solar heat.
Clear self cleaning glass – Used where maximum daylight transmission is required.
Blue solar control glass – Used where reduced solar heat gain and glare are required, particularly on south facing roofs or large glazed spaces.
Installation
The roof lantern is designed for installation onto a prepared builders upstand on flat or low pitch roofs.
This installation method is commonly used on new extensions and refurbishment projects where a roof lantern is installed to introduce natural daylight into the room below.
