Property across Cardiff runs to Victorian terraces and bay-fronted semis where side-return and rear extensions make lanterns a staple — context that genuinely changes what we specify, from glazing coatings to frame colours and fixing details.
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.
The self-clean layer itself is virtually invisible. Any tint you see comes from the solar-control side of the unit — blue is the popular choice, neutral keeps the glass colour-true.
Yes, within honest limits. Daylight breaks down organic dirt and rain rinses it off in sheets, so the glass stays presentably clean with almost no intervention. Heavy bird soiling or long droughts still occasionally want a hose.
No — it's pyrolytic, fired into the glass surface during manufacture rather than applied afterwards, so it lasts the life of the unit with nothing to renew.
That's the standard pairing — one sealed unit with the self-clean layer outside and the solar-control coating within. Most lantern glass we supply ships exactly that way.
