Traditional Roof Lanterns in Cambridge — common questions

Do traditional lanterns work on modern extensions?

They can — a tall lantern over a new orangery-style extension with brick piers looks superb. On a minimalist flat-roof box, a contemporary low-pitch design is usually the better fit.

Aluminium or timber for a period property?

Timber for listed buildings and strict conservation contexts; heritage aluminium for everything else — it gives the period look with modern thermal performance and no repainting.

What pitch is a traditional roof lantern?

Between 35 and 45 degrees — tall enough to give the classic pavilion silhouette and the generous internal height that defines orangery-style rooms.

Can I have a finial on an aluminium lantern?

Yes — ridge finials and decorative cresting are available on our heritage aluminium range, giving the traditional silhouette without timber's maintenance.

Do you cover Cambridge for installation?

Yes — Cambridge is inside our standard Cambridgeshire coverage. Our fitting teams survey and install throughout the area, and supply-only deliveries run to Cambridge on dedicated glass transport.

What's the lead time for Cambridge?

Stocked standard sizes typically deliver to Cambridge 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.
