Buying an Korniche Roof Lantern

  • Why choose a Korniche roof lantern?

    The Korniche is the UK's market-leading aluminium roof lantern, holder of a King's Award for Innovation and designed as the fastest-to-fit lantern on the market. Its thermally broken aluminium frame, advanced polymer thermal breaks and fully insulated joints make it warm and structurally rigid, while a unique spar-tensioning system keeps the slim sightlines tight and weather-tight. Glazed with 28mm argon-filled, self-cleaning glass, secured to PAS24 as standard and backed by a 10-year warranty, it's a premium lantern that still fits fast and cleanly.

  • Rectangular or pyramid - and how big can it span?

    The Korniche comes in rectangular and pyramid configurations at a fixed 25° pitch. Choose pyramid for square or near-square openings and rectangular for extensions and orangeries. Sizes run up to 6m × 4m for the largest rectangular unit (4m × 4m pyramid), giving large, uninterrupted glass spans with minimal frame. Measure the finished builder's kerb the lantern will sit on, not the ceiling opening, and we'll help you to confirm the size.

  • What are the Korniche glazing options?

    All Korniche glass is 28mm double-glazed, argon-filled and self-cleaning as standard, with laminated and privacy options available. There are six glass specifications, from Clear (maximum light) through to solar-control Blue and the Premium coatings (best solar control and warmth).

    South-facing rooms may benefit from a higher solar-reflection glass to limit overheating; north-facing rooms usually want Clear for brightness. Note the Korniche is double-glazed only and there is no triple-glazed option.

  • Can the Korniche have LED lighting?

    Yes, it can be specified with fully integrated, dimmable LED lighting and a matched diffuser lens that hides the strip when off and softly lights the frame when on.

  • Can a Korniche roof lantern be opened?

    No, the Korniche is a fixed (non-opening) sealed lantern, which is what keeps its thermal performance and weather-tightness at their best. If you need ventilation, pair it with a separate opening rooflight; see our opening windows range.
