Questions from Dunfermline
Are contemporary lanterns weaker?
They are engineered for the sizes they are sold in. That is exactly why their maximum sizes are often smaller: the frame is slimmer, so each range has its own limits.
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 Dunfermline?
With the midsummer sun about 57.4° high at noon, roof glass in Dunfermline gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Dunfermline?
