Roof Lanterns Nottingham

Bring more natural light and contemporary style into your home with our aluminium roof lanterns Nottingham.

Aluminium Roof Lanterns Nottingham

At Kompass Home, we supply and install premium roof lanterns that combine modern aesthetics with outstanding thermal efficiency – all tailored to suit your property.

Whether you’re looking to brighten a kitchen extension, open up a living space, or add a stylish centrepiece to a new flat roof, our aluminium roof lanterns are designed to complement both modern and traditional Nottingham homes.

Roof Lanterns Designed Around Your Nottingham Home

Every roof lantern we install is made to measure and built around your requirements. From the size and shape to the colour and glazing options, you can fully customise your new roof lantern to suit your space and style. We offer a broad palette of colours and finishes to help create a seamless match with your current décor – whether you prefer a sleek, minimalist look or something more classic.

With slim sightlines and strong aluminium frames, our roof lanterns maximise the amount of daylight entering your home while maintaining strength, security, and weather resistance.

Thermally efficient roof lanterns

Our aluminium roof lanterns are engineered with thermal performance in mind. The high-performance glazing and thermally broken aluminium profiles help reduce heat loss and maintain a comfortable indoor temperature all year round.

Available with either double or triple glazing, our roof lanterns can help lower your energy bills by reducing your reliance on central heating – a smart way to improve your home’s carbon footprint and overall efficiency.

Why choose a lantern roof?

We work closely with leading manufacturers to ensure every aluminium roof lantern we install offers long-lasting performance and stylish results. Whether you’re planning a new extension or upgrading an existing flat roof, we’ll guide you through every step of the process – from design to installation.

Increased light

A roof lantern is an ideal solution for brightening darker rooms or flat-roof extensions. Their architectural design allows daylight to pour in from above, instantly lifting the space and transforming the atmosphere of your home.

Double glazing

Lantern roofs create a glazed ceiling effect that makes a real statement. The pitched design brings in light from multiple angles and creates additional headroom, helping rooms feel bigger, brighter, and more open.

Energy efficient

Aluminium roof lanterns aren’t just about light – they’re designed to improve insulation too. Our energy-efficient glazing reduces heat loss and improves ventilation, so your space stays warm in the winter and cooler in the summer.

Durable

Aluminium is an incredibly strong and long-lasting material, making it ideal for roofing applications. Our lanterns are built to withstand harsh weather, from high winds to heavy rain, offering long-term reliability with very little maintenance.

Style

Designed with minimal sightlines and available in a variety of sizes, our lantern windows suit a wide range of Midlands homes. Whether you prefer a two-bar or three-bar design, our clean-lined systems provide maximum glass area and a crisp, contemporary finish.

Weatherproof

Built for performance, our aluminium roof lanterns are engineered to prevent draughts and stop water from seeping in. With high-spec seals and quality double glazing, they help keep your home comfortable no matter the conditions outside.

Customisation options

Sheerline roof lanterns are highly customisable, making them a popular choice for a wide range of projects. They’re available in various sizes and layouts, including 2-way, 3-way and multi-hip configurations, allowing them to suit anything from smaller extensions to large, open-plan spaces. Their slimline rafters and minimalist design help maximise the amount of natural light, while thermal break technology comes as standard to improve energy efficiency. Depending on your needs, you can also opt for enhanced glazing options for even greater insulation performance. Some models offer flexibility in pitch angles too, giving you more control over the look and functionality of the finished installation.

In terms of colours, Sheerline offers a strong selection of powder-coated finishes. Popular choices include Pure White gloss, Anthracite Grey matt, and Jet Black matt, with the option to choose different colours inside and out for a more tailored look. For those wanting something unique, Sheerline also provides bespoke RAL colour matching, although this may slightly extend lead times. To further personalise your lantern, there are a number of accessories available. These include decorative rafter and end caps, self-cleaning glass, solar control glazing to reduce heat build-up, and tinted glass options in blue or neutral tones. For areas where ventilation is important, you can also specify manual or automatic opening vents to help maintain a comfortable indoor environment.

Ral Colours

Our aluminium roof lanterns are available in a wide range of colours to suit any home style, from contemporary extensions to more traditional builds. As standard, we offer a selection of popular finishes such as anthracite grey, black, and white – all of which are powder-coated for long-lasting performance and resistance to fading. These timeless choices complement a broad range of window and door colours, offering a clean and cohesive finish for your living space.

For those looking for something more personalised, we also offer bespoke RAL colour options on request. Whether you want to match existing frames, echo an interior palette, or make a bold design statement, we can supply your roof lantern in almost any RAL colour. From subtle heritage tones to vibrant modern shades, the possibilities are virtually endless. If you’re unsure where to start, our team can help guide you through the available options and provide samples to help you visualise the finished look.

Roof lantern timeline

It all starts with a conversation. We’ll discuss your requirements, the style of your property, and what you’re hoping to achieve with your roof lantern. Whether you already have architectural drawings or just an idea in your head, we’ll guide you through the options – including sizes, glazing specs, and colours – to shape the perfect solution. This stage is all about listening, advising, and setting the foundation for a seamless installation.

Once you’re happy to move forward, we’ll arrange a full site survey. Our experienced team will take detailed measurements, assess the roof opening or plans, and identify any structural or access considerations. We’ll also confirm the final specification, ensuring everything is tailored precisely to your space. This step ensures accuracy before manufacturing begins – avoiding surprises later on.

Your aluminium roof lantern is then put into production, made to your exact measurements and colour choice. Every unit is crafted using precision-engineered aluminium profiles and high-performance glazing, ensuring excellent thermal efficiency and strength. Because every roof lantern is bespoke, this stage is crucial for ensuring a perfect fit and finish once it arrives on site.

Once manufactured, we’ll coordinate a convenient installation date. Our trained installers handle the entire process with care – from safe delivery and preparation to precise fitting and sealing. Whether it’s going onto a new flat roof or replacing an old lantern, we work efficiently and respectfully, keeping disruption to a minimum. Most installations are completed within a day.

Once installed, we’ll carry out a full inspection and walk you through the finished product. We’ll also advise on how to keep your roof lantern in top condition, including cleaning tips and any aftercare you might need. As a company that values long-term satisfaction, we’re always available if you have any questions after installation – because great service doesn’t stop once the job’s done.
