Large roof lanterns in County Fermanagh: questions
How is a large lantern delivered?
On pallets, usually with the frame and glass packed separately. The heaviest single item is normally a glass unit, which needs two or more people to lift safely.
What is the biggest roof lantern you can supply?
It depends on the range. Some go to about 6 m by 4 m with intermediate rafters. Send us your kerb size and we will confirm what can be made.
Does a large lantern need structural calculations?
The roof structure around it usually does. Your engineer or building control body will want the lantern's weight and the opening size.
Who checks building regulations for a lantern in County Fermanagh?
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.
