Questions from Strabane
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.
Does black get hotter?
The frame surface does, but the effect on the room is small next to the choice of glass.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Strabane?
Your district council's building control service. For a lantern in a new extension it forms part of the extension's approval; replacements in existing homes have their own rules.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Strabane?
With the midsummer sun about 58.6° high at noon, roof glass in Strabane gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
