Questions from Stornoway
Which white matches uPVC windows?
Gloss white, often RAL 9016, is usually closest. Send us a photo of your windows if you are unsure.
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.

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 HS1.
Is it worth having solar-control glass in Stornoway?
With the midsummer sun about 55.2° high at noon, roof glass in Stornoway gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
