The county's housing stock — 1930s semis, new-build estates and barn conversions — large bifold-plus-lantern rear extensions are the dominant project type — shapes our recommendations here more than any brochure could.
Frames are thermally broken aluminium, glazing is 28mm argon-filled with self-clean and solar options, and everything is made to measure. Buy supply-only with kerbside delivery, or have our fitters handle the lot under a written workmanship guarantee.
Standard sizes below — made to measure quoted same day. Installation available nationwide if you’d rather we fit it.

Yes — we'll send comparative section drawings showing our slimline profile against a standard lantern at the same scale, so the difference is concrete before you commit.
On current systems, around 40mm at the ridge externally. Claims much below that usually measure a different part of the frame — we'll always quote like-for-like ridge and hip dimensions so you can compare honestly.
No — the slimness comes from structural bonding and better alloys, not thinner-for-the-sake-of-it metal. Each lantern is engineered for its span and site wind loading.
Tighter tolerances, structural glazing and higher-spec profiles all add manufacturing cost, and installation needs more care. It's the premium tier of the lantern market and priced accordingly.
Send the form and we’ll come back with honest prices — supply-only or installed — with a response within 1 working hour.
