Roof Lanterns can transform the whole feel of a room and the way it is used.
 
Roof Lanterns (sometimes known as Roof Lights) are our specialty. There is nothing we haven’t done in the range of lantern roofs. We have made all sizes and shapes, various ridge configurations, and opening roof lights. We can also manufacture domes and lanterns with curved rafters. The accuracy of machining and factory finishing makes installation a simple and quick operation
 
Timber lantern roofs are machined and finished in our factory by our highly skilled engineers and joiners utilising 5 axis CNC routers with robotic loading. The roof components are designed and manufactured for an accurate fit. The whole process is under our control and the lantern roof leaves our workshop fully factory finished, wrapped and ready for installation.

Product Features

Easy Assembly
Manufactured by our highly skilled engineers and joiners utilising 5 axis CNC routers with robotic loading, the roof components are designed for an extraordinarily accurate fit. All timber components are engraved with their unique part ID corresponding to your individual project CAD drawings. This along with unique slotted dovetail, mortise and tenon joints and pre-drilled fixing holes allow for a fast and simple installation on site.
 
Roof Glazing
By using stepped, double glazed units which sit in the rebated lantern fascia, we ensure that roof glazing is a clean, simple and quick operation.

Aluminium Cappers
Our lantern roofs are capped and finished with a low maintenance aluminium capper which can be powder coated to closely match the timber colour, or another colour of your choosing.
 
Weatherproofing Gasket

Roof glass units sit on top of a specially designed gasket system, acting as protection against water ingress.

Customisable Roof Sections
We can adjust rafter pitch, centres and depth to suit the design or to maximise glass area. Finishes and glass specifications can be adapted to suit every requirement. Also available are curved rafters and full domes in any number of configurations. Our experience of manufacturing timber roofs delivers the quality product whilst still allowing the client complete control and flexibility.
 
Roof Vents
Opening roof vents are clad with timber internally while the external aluminium can be powder coated to match the rest of the roof cappings. Roof vents can be operated manually using a worm screw and pole or they can be motorised using a manual or automatic switch with a thermostat and rain sensor. Electric cables can be neatly concealed from view within the rafters.

Paint Finish

Timber is treated with three coats of factory applied micro-porous paint or translucent stain providing a fully finished product. Our fully automated finishing plant provides a high build, uniform paint finish. All paint, primers and finishes are micro-porus, allowing the timber to breathe naturally.

A choice of standard paint colours are available. Special colours can also be produced to match any sample or RAL reference number. We can also provide a combination of two-tone internal/external.

Please visit the paint finish section of our website for more information.
