Westbury’s Timber and Glass Roof Lanterns are Structural Masterpieces
A roof lantern usually sits atop a larger flat roof and is a highly effective way of introducing natural light, warmth and style to a building or extension.
The clean lines and symmetry create an incredible architectural impact when viewed from inside or out. Designed with correct proportions, our timber roof lanterns give consideration to depth of shelf, beam dimension and hip shape. The result is an impressive, balanced design.
Our timber roof lanterns are manufactured using knot-free engineered timber for its durability and stability. Our lanterns can be made to any size and pitch, and we offer a full in-house design service with prompt turnaround.
We believe the small details make a big difference. For example, our finials are made from resin, which means they will last forever, as opposed to solid timber which, from our experience, may split over time and could cause ingress of water. We also use powder coated external aluminium cladding to match the roof cappings, making it maintenance free.
Glazing is 4-16-4 toughened clear, argon filled sealed units with Low E coating and warm edge spacer bar as standard. Optional laminated, self-cleaning or solar reflective glass is available.
We offer a variety of decorative cornices to the internal aperture and optional curved hips with cock bead.
Ventilation is provided from top-hung sash, operated electronically with auto controls.
