Contemporary roof lanterns for Coleraine homes
Slim frames, fewer bars and a lower profile for a cleaner view of the sky.

Questions from Coleraine
Can I have a contemporary lantern in white?
Yes, though most buyers choose grey or black because the slimmer frame is the point and dark frames disappear against the sky.
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.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Coleraine?
Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for BT51.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in Coleraine?
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.
