Roof Lantern

Roof lanterns are essential for transforming any flat roof extension into a stunning space, saturating the property with natural light and enhancing the feeling of added space! At Baldwin Home Improvements, we specialise in supplying and installing the highest quality roof lanterns available on the market!

But what exactly is a roof lantern?

A roof lantern consists of separate panes of glazing set within an aluminium frame. Unlike roof lights that sit flat on the roof, roof lanterns project upwards, allowing light to enter the room from all angles. In essence, roof lanterns can be likened to miniature conservatory roofs.

Choosing the right roof lantern for your home is crucial. It should maximise natural light while effectively insulating your home, keeping it secure and enhancing night-time views of the stars. Our Thermlock® multi-chamber thermal technology ensures low heating bills, while deep internal bars create a robust structure for spans up to 3.2 x 6m without tie bars. With ultra-low-line aesthetics and hardwearing powder-coated aluminium both inside and out, our S1 roof lanterns boast the most secure features, including anti-tamper screws, enclosed anti-tamper glazing, security tape, and our patent-pending glass lock, along with our unique high-security ridge end, ensuring your flat roof lantern provides unparalleled security for your property.

In addition to their aesthetic appeal, thermal efficiency, and security features, our roof lanterns are fully customisable. Choose from a range of standard colours or opt for a bespoke RAL colour. Select from various glazing tints, shapes, and sizes, and even incorporate opening panes for improved airflow!

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are roof lanterns best suited?

Roof lanterns are designed for flat roofs and are often installed in kitchens or living rooms to flood the space with natural light. They are not suitable for pitched roofs.

Can I have a different colour inside and outside for my roof lantern?

Yes, due to the thermal break in the lantern, it’s possible to have a dual colour, with many opting for white inside to blend with the ceiling.

Do roof lanterns need to be cleaned?

We install self-cleaning glass in roof lanterns, which reduces the need for manual cleaning. The glass breaks down debris, which is washed away by rainwater.

What materials are roof lanterns made from?

Roof lanterns are primarily constructed from aluminium, which features a thermal break for insulation, similar to aluminium windows and doors.

What’s the difference between a roof lantern and a skylight?

Roof lanterns are raised structures with multiple glass panels, while skylights are single pieces of glass that are flush with the roof.
