White roof lanterns
White roof lanterns blend into a white ceiling, so from inside the room you notice the sky rather than the frame. They are the traditional choice for orangeries, period homes and extensions with white windows and doors.

Which white?
Common whites are RAL 9016 traffic white and RAL 9010 pure white, in gloss or satin. If you are matching white uPVC windows, a gloss white is usually closest. For timber-look painted joinery, an off-white such as RAL 9001 cream may suit better.
White inside, colour outside
Many people choose white inside with grey or black outside. If your outside joinery is white too, a white lantern both sides is the simplest match.

White roof lanterns: common questions
Does a white lantern show dirt?
Outside, white shows dirt more than grey. Self-cleaning glass helps with the glass, and the frames benefit from an occasional wash.
Which white matches uPVC windows?
Gloss white, often RAL 9016, is usually closest. Send us a photo of your windows if you are unsure.
Can I have white inside and anthracite outside?
Yes, that is one of the most common combinations.
Is white cheaper?
White is a stock colour, so it costs the same as the other stock colours.
