Questions from Forfar
Should the lantern match my bifold doors?
A common choice is to match the outside colour, often anthracite. The inside can be white to keep the ceiling bright.
Can I add a lantern to my existing orangery roof?
If the roof has a suitable opening and upstand, yes. If not, the roof needs structural alteration first, which is a job for a builder with an engineer's input.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Forfar?
Yes. Delivery to Forfar (DD8) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Forfar?
With the midsummer sun about 56.8° high at noon, roof glass in Forfar gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
