Questions from Hawick
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.
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.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Hawick?
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 TD9.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Hawick?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
