What are Roof Lanterns?
Roof lanterns are a beautiful architectural feature that floods your home with natural light and adds a touch of glamour. Unlike rooflights and skylights, roof lanterns are Victorian inspired, a mix of traditional and modern.
These glazed structures are suitable for all architectural styles and will enhance both the look and functionality of your space.
One of the biggest benefits of roof lanterns is their thermal efficiency. So you can have a bright room without losing energy. Available in various framing options including sleek aluminium, roof lanterns can be customised to your needs and style.
Whether you want to brighten up a kitchen, living room or extension, roof lanterns are a versatile and stylish option.
Key Features: The Bright Spot in Roofing Solutions
The Korniche Roof Lantern leads the way with its impressive specs and features to let in the light and be robust.
An ultra slim aluminium frame, one of the highest glass to frame ratios on the market, with more light into the room and better looks. Glass roof lanterns have double glazing and thermal breaks so are thermally efficient and leak proof.
Thermal efficiency is also impressive for a roof lantern, with innovative glazing options to keep your home warm all year round, an energy efficient choice for any homeowner.

Choosing the Right Roof Lantern
Choosing the right roof lantern for your home can be daunting but with a few simple considerations you can make an informed decision. Start by measuring the size you need.
The right size will depend on how much natural light you want to let in and the style of your home. A larger roof lantern will let more light in and create a bright and airy space.
Next consider the glazing. Double glazing is a popular choice for its thermal efficiency and noise reduction. This means your home will be comfortable and quiet whatever the weather outside.
The frame material is also a key consideration. Aluminium for a sleek modern look for durability and low maintenance.
Finally think about the design of the roof lantern. Contemporary roof lanterns are a popular choice for modern homes with clean lines and a minimalist look.
But traditional designs are also available for a timeless elegance that will suit more classic architectural styles. By considering these points you can choose a roof lantern that will suit your home and enhance its appeal.
