Questions from Antrim
Does black get hotter?
The frame surface does, but the effect on the room is small next to the choice of glass.
Is a black lantern too dark inside?
The frame is a small part of what you see; the glass dominates. Black frames inside create a graphic grid that many people like. If you want a softer look, choose white inside.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Antrim?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your district council before ordering.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Antrim?
With the midsummer sun about 58.7° high at noon, roof glass in Antrim gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
