Available in our slimline roof lanterns with a contemporary 4-pane design or our traditional roof lanterns with a classic 6-pane style, each option draws daylight from every angle, filling your home with light without interrupting your view of the sky. Every roof lantern (and rooflight) comes with double glazing as standard, and a choice of clear or blue-tinted self-cleaning glass to keep your views bright with less effort.

Roof lanterns are ideal for kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, orangeriesconservatory-style spaces, anywhere you want to bring in more light and create a space that feels open, fresh, and welcoming.

Roof Lantern FAQs

What is the difference between a roof lantern and a skylight?
A roof lantern is a multi-paned feature with a pitched or pyramidal design, whereas a skylight is usually a flat or slightly curved window. Roof lanterns are designed to add height, while skylights are more subtle and mainly installed to let in light.
Are roof lanterns energy-efficient?
Modern roof lanterns can be energy-efficient if they use quality materials like low-E glass, double or triple glazing, and thermal breaks. These features help minimise heat loss in the winter and reduce heat gain in the summer.
Do roof lanterns require planning permission?
Most roof lanterns do not require planning permission if they meet size and placement limits. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area, or the lantern changes the roofline, you may need approval from your local authority.
Where is the best place to put a roof lantern?
A roof lantern should sit above the part of the room that needs the most daylight. Kitchens, dining areas, and living spaces are common choices. The position should suit the layout and avoid structural or ventilation issues.
What size roof lantern should I choose?
You can choose from 4-pane and 6-pane lanterns in different sizes, or have a custom size made. The lantern should match the proportions of the room and leave enough roof area for support and drainage.
What are the benefits of roof lanterns?
A roof lantern increases natural light, reduces the need for artificial lighting, and can make a room feel more open. Models with opening vents also support airflow and heat control.
How durable and weatherproof are roof lanterns?
Our roof lanterns are made from high-quality aluminium and glass. They are built to prevent water ingress, condensation, and drafts, with seals and coatings that support long-term performance. The glazing and installation also affect durability.
How much maintenance do roof lanterns require?
Roof lanterns need minimal maintenance. Cleaning the glass to remove dirt is usually enough. Some models have self-cleaning glass. Checking seals and joints now and then helps keep them weather-tight.
Are roof lanterns noisy when it rains?
You will hear rain on a roof lantern, but modern glazing reduces noise. Thicker or laminated glass can make it quieter.
How do you clean roof lanterns?
Use a soft sponge, mild soapy water, and rinse with clean water. Avoid abrasive cleaners. If the lantern is hard to reach, use a long-handled tool or hire a professional.
Can roof lanterns provide ventilation?
Some roof lanterns include opening vents to improve airflow. You can choose fixed units or models with manual or electric openings depending on the room and layout.
What glazing options are available?
We supply double glazing only. You can choose clear glass or a blue tint depending on the look and light level you prefer.
