Fill your home with natural light

With more and more people extending their homes to maximise space potential, lantern roofs and roof lights have become an increasingly important part of modern architecture, delivering an attractive, practical and financially viable natural light source.

The difference between a skylight and a roof lantern is that a skylight is flat and a roof lantern is raised. Lanterns can either be peaked, or they can be elevated on glazed walls, with a strong PVCu frame and a flat top. Although aesthetics do play a part, it is paramount that you select the right design for the roof structure.

Available in various forms – flat, peaked, lantern – skylights can transform a dull, stuffy room into a bright and airy space, without taking up room on the walls, allowing you more freedom of design, function and storage. Roof lights can also help to improve the ventilation in a property; the apertures can be formed to open fully, or can be supplied with automated vent actuation, which allows you to cater for differences in inside temperature and outside weather, letting in a light summer breeze and keeping out a cold winter frost.

Roof lights can be installed in listed buildings and conservation areas; you just need to make sure that the design is sympathetic to the building, the installation does not obscure/destroy any unique original features, and that the installation is not visible from the street. If in doubt, check the planning guidelines with your local authority.

Brighten up your home and open up your space

Skylights and roof lanterns can be fashioned from a range of glazing. We would generally recommend the Pilkington Activ range, as it is self-cleaning. Pilkington Activ Neutral has the added advantage of providing enhanced thermal protection, which can be incredibly beneficial in south-facing loft conversions, reducing heat transference and helping to regulate temperature in summer.

A skylight brings more natural light and height to a room – an ideal way to breathe new life into existing flat roofs.

Our slimline contemporary rooflights are designed with minimal glazing barconnectors which are narrow in order to maximise the natural light.
