Questions from Fraserburgh
Do I need an upstand for a roof lantern?
Yes. Lanterns are designed to sit on an upstand, never directly on the roof deck.
What height should my upstand be?
High enough to keep water away from the lantern seal, commonly at least 150 mm above the finished roof surface. Follow the instructions for your chosen range.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Fraserburgh?
Yes. Delivery to Fraserburgh (AB43) 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 Fraserburgh?
With the midsummer sun about 55.7° high at noon, roof glass in Fraserburgh gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
