The county's housing stock — timber-framed cottages and barn conversions where conservation-friendly, slim-profile lanterns are frequently specified — shapes our recommendations here more than any brochure could.
Every lantern is thermally broken aluminium as standard, glazed with 28mm argon-filled units, and available with self-clean and solar-control coatings. Supply-only orders include kerb specifications and fitting documentation; installed projects carry our written workmanship guarantee on top of the 10-year product cover.
Meaningfully more — structural laminated glass and engineering calculations drive the price. As a guide, expect two to three times an equivalent fixed flat rooflight; we quote each panel from its size and load class.
Each unit is structurally calculated for its size and use — domestic units are rated for foot traffic with generous safety factors, and higher load classes cover planters, furniture and pavement-level duty. Strength is engineered per panel, not assumed.
Untreated glass can be, so we offer anti-slip finishes: a near-invisible ceramic frit pattern for light use, or sandblasted bands where the panel sits in a main walking route.
That's the classic application — a flush glass panel set into the terrace deck, lighting the room beneath. The kerb takes the load and the perimeter drains with the rest of the terrace.
Send the form and we’ll come back with honest prices — supply-only or installed — with a response within 1 working hour.
