Roof lanterns offer a traditional focal point to any garden room, orangery, or extension. We hand build our wooden roof lanterns from hardwood, and can supply it in a range of finishes. The external elements of the Lanterns are capped in a powder coated aluminum extrusion and can be supplied with an option of ball finials. As an alternative we can offer a more traditional lead ridge capping.
“Hi James, Just wanted to let you know our timber roof lantern was installed today and it looks amazing! The wood is beautiful and the craftsmanship outstanding. It is the focal point of our kitchen and has transformed it into a bright open space. I’m standing underneath it looking up at a bright blue sky… perfection! Many thanks.” Natasha

Solar Control and Self Cleaning Glass
We can supply double glazed units with the outer pane made from Pilkington Active Neutral which has a slight but neutral tint. This is also available with a blue, grey or bronze tint to further reduce solar glare if required.
Acoustic Glass
If noise is an issue then we can supply units with the outer layer made from 6.4mm laminated glass, this cuts down noise transmission due to the two layers of glass being made of dissimilar materials which has the effect of breaking up the sound waves. We can offer ‘Acoustic Glass’ if required.
Triple Glazed Units
We can supply triple glazed units if required. Please contact us for more details.
Ventilation
Our wooden roof lanterns can incorporate powered or manually operated openers. This comes in the form of an aluminum unit, custom made to fit on top of the timber frame, in line with the double glazed units. It can be supplied in a colour to match the capping in required.
Sidelights
Our timber roof lanterns can be supplied with sidelight windows either with or without opening casements. They are made from hardwood with decorative corner posts and paint to match the lantern. Contact us for more details and prices.
