Small roof lanterns

Small roof lanterns, around one metre to one and a half metres, bring daylight into spaces that windows cannot reach: a dark hallway, a utility room, a downstairs shower room or a narrow side return. They are lighter, quicker to fit and often available from stock.

In short: Compact lanterns for hallways, utility rooms, porches and side returns. Guide prices start from £1,095 including VAT, supply only.

Where does a small lantern make the most difference?

In the middle of a deep house, where no window reaches. A 1000 × 1000 mm or 1000 × 1500 mm lantern in a flat-roofed side return or utility can replace a light that would otherwise be on all day.

Small lanterns are light enough for two people to lift, which keeps fitting simple.

Small lantern or flat rooflight?

A flat rooflight is cheaper and lower-profile; a small lantern sheds water and dirt better and gives a little more headroom and light. If the roof is overlooked or the opening is very small, a flat rooflight may be the better choice.

What does a small lantern cost?

Small stock sizes are the lowest-priced lanterns in the range. Guide prices below include VAT for supply only.

Before you order

Three checks

  1. Measure the outside of the kerb, width then length, and check the diagonals. How to measure.
  2. Check the glazing allowance for your extension and whether you need planning permission. See building regulations and planning.
  3. Plan the lift. Your quote gives the approximate weight so your installer can plan access and lifting.
Questions

Small roof lanterns: common questions

What is the smallest roof lantern?

Many ranges start at around 800–1000 mm. Below that, a flat rooflight is usually the better product.

Can I fit a small lantern myself?

Small lanterns are within the reach of a competent builder or roofer. The critical parts are a level, square, weatherproof upstand and the manufacturer's fixing instructions. In existing homes, replacement rooflights are building work that may need building control involvement.

Does a small lantern need an opening vent?

Not usually. Background ventilation for the room can come from trickle vents or extract fans. Vents are more useful on lanterns over kitchens and large living spaces.

Are small lanterns available quickly?

Standard small sizes are often available from stock. Lead times are confirmed on your quote.
