Questions from St Andrews
Is uPVC heavier?
Weight is dominated by the glass, so the difference is small.
Will white uPVC yellow over time?
Modern uPVC profiles are UV-stabilised and should stay white with normal cleaning. Very old lanterns, especially with polycarbonate panels, are the ones that discolour.

Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for KY16.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in St Andrews?
With the midsummer sun about 57.1° high at noon, roof glass in St Andrews gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
