Questions from Omagh
Does a longer lantern need extra support?
Long lanterns use intermediate rafters inside the lantern itself. The roof structure around the opening must be designed to carry the lantern's weight; your builder or engineer sizes the trimmers.
Can a rectangular lantern be made to an exact size?
Yes. Made-to-measure lanterns are built to the external kerb size you give us, usually in 10 mm steps within the range's limits. Made-to-measure takes longer than a stock size and cannot be cancelled once ordered, so measure twice.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Omagh?
With the midsummer sun about 58.8° high at noon, roof glass in Omagh gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Can you fit a roof lantern in Omagh?
We can quote for fitting where we have cover. Send your postcode and photos of the roof and kerb, and we will confirm before quoting.
