Like much of Scottish Borders, Melrose features mill-town terraces and rural steadings with heritage-sensitive lantern work. It's the kind of work our surveyors and fitting teams handle week in, week out across the Scotland region.
You get the same product either way — thermally broken aluminium, self-clean and solar-control glass options, made to the millimetre. The only choice is who fits it: your builder with our documentation, or our own nationwide teams.
Coverage takes in Melrose, Galashiels, Hawick and Kelso and every corner of Scottish Borders. Surveys and quotes are free, with a response within 1 working hour on every enquiry.
Standard sizes below — made to measure quoted same day. Installation available nationwide if you’d rather we fit it.

Low pitch, minimal frame and disciplined colour. A 20–25 degree pitch keeps the silhouette as a shallow glass prism, slim bars keep the structure quiet, and anthracite or black framing completes the look.
Pitch sets the lantern's height and shadow. A 40-degree lantern reads traditional and pavilion-like; drop to 20–25 degrees and the same footprint becomes a sleek low rooflight — it's the single biggest styling decision.
Almost always. Low-pitch designs present a lot of glass to high summer sun, so we specify blue or neutral solar-control units by default and tune the spec to your roof's orientation.
Yes — and it should. We routinely set lantern positions and widths off the door module lines on the architect's plan so the ceiling and the glazed wall read as one composition.
Yes — Melrose is inside our standard Scottish Borders coverage. Our fitting teams survey and install throughout the area, and supply-only deliveries run to Melrose on dedicated glass transport.
Stocked standard sizes typically deliver to Melrose within 7–10 working days; made-to-measure fabrication adds to that, and we confirm the slot when you order so it lands with your build programme.
