Rectangular roof lanterns for Kelso homes
The classic double-hipped lantern: a ridge, four sloping sides and the most size choice.
In midsummer the noon sun stands about 57.8° high over Kelso, so roof glazing gets the full strength of it. That is why solar-control glass is worth considering on larger lanterns here.
- Suits kitchen-diners and rear extensions

Planning and building regulations for Kelso
In Scotland, energy standards come from Section 6 of the domestic Technical Handbook, and most extensions need a building warrant before work starts.
Planning in Scotland follows the Scottish permitted development order; your council confirms whether your lantern needs consent.
Building regulations in Kelso are checked by your local authority building standards (verifier) service. Some like-for-like replacement work does not need a building warrant but must still meet the building standards. Your council's building standards service can confirm.

Questions from Kelso
What is the most common rectangular roof lantern size?
Sizes of 1000 × 2000 mm and 1500 × 2500 mm are common standard sizes for kitchen and dining extensions, but the right size is the one that matches your kerb. If your kerb is not built yet, our sizes guide helps you pick a standard size first.
Which way should the ridge run?
The ridge runs along the longer side. On a square opening there is no ridge and the lantern becomes a pyramid.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Kelso?
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.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Kelso?
Yes. Delivery to Kelso (TD5) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
