Built for Folkestone homes

Like much of Kent, Folkestone features weatherboard cottages, Victorian villas and a huge commuter-belt extension market — kitchen-diner lanterns are the signature project here. It's the kind of work our surveyors and fitting teams handle week in, week out across the South East 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 Folkestone, Chatham, Rochester and Sittingbourne and every corner of Kent. Surveys and quotes are free, with a response within 1 working hour on every enquiry.

Traditional Roof Lanterns in Folkestone — 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 Folkestone for installation?

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

What's the lead time for Folkestone?

Stocked standard sizes typically deliver to Folkestone 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.
