Questions from Eltham
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.
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.
