Questions from Montrose
Do you make timber traditional lanterns?
Our range is aluminium and uPVC. Aluminium can be powder-coated in heritage colours that suit timber windows and doors.
Will a traditional lantern need planning permission?
The style does not change the planning position; size, height and location do. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the main cases where consent is more likely to be needed.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Montrose?
With the midsummer sun about 56.7° high at noon, roof glass in Montrose gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Montrose?
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.
