Square roof lanterns for Manchester homes
Four triangular panes meeting at a point: a pyramid lantern for square openings.
At 53.48°N, Manchester sees roughly 7h 28m of daylight in late December and 17h 02m in late June. A lantern faces the bright overhead sky all year, so it brings in useful light even on the short, grey days.
- Ideal over a table, island or hallway
- Stock colours or any RAL on request
- No ridge, a neat apex cap instead

Planning and building regulations for Manchester
For homes in England, a new or replacement rooflight should achieve a U-value of 2.2 W/m²K or better in the horizontal position, under Approved Document L.
On a permitted development extension the lantern counts towards the extension's height; on an existing roof, a rooflight projecting more than 150 mm may need planning permission.
Building regulations in Manchester are checked by your local authority building control team or a registered building control approver. Replacing a rooflight in an existing home is building work. Installers registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify; otherwise building control must be involved.

Questions from Manchester
Will a square lantern leak at the top?
It should not when it is correctly installed and maintained. The apex is factory-designed to shed water; leaks usually come from the upstand or roof membrane rather than the lantern itself, which is why the upstand detail matters.
Can I have an opening vent in a pyramid lantern?
Some ranges can fit a vent in one of the triangular panes, others cannot. We will tell you on the quote whether your chosen range allows it.
Do you deliver roof lanterns to Manchester?
Yes. Delivery to Manchester (M1) is quoted for your exact postcode and confirmed in writing on your quote, together with the lead time.
