Questions from Newtownards
Do contemporary lanterns cost more?
Usually a little more per size than a standard range, because the bigger glass units cost more to make and handle.
Is a contemporary lantern the same as a flat rooflight?
No. A contemporary lantern still has sloping glass and a ridge or apex; it simply has slimmer frames and fewer bars. A flat rooflight is a single, nearly flat pane of glass on an upstand.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Newtownards?
With the midsummer sun about 58.8° high at noon, roof glass in Newtownards gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Newtownards?
Yes. Delivery to Newtownards (BT23) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
