Roof lantern Kootwijkerbroek for homes and outbuildings

From Kootwijkerbroek to the DagLichtDesign workshop is approx. 6 km, about ten minutes by car. You hardly get closer to a made-to-measure roof lantern than that. You discuss your situation, collect the glass roof lantern yourself by appointment, or have it delivered on an agreed date. Whether it is for a house in the village or an outbuilding on the farmyard.

Farms and outbuildings with a second life

Kootwijkerbroek has a distinctly agricultural character, with many farms and farm buildings in the surrounding countryside. When part of one is converted into a home, office or workspace, daylight is often the first problem. A deep barn has few windows and a large roof surface.

In that situation, a gable roof lantern can follow the line of the building. As standard it goes up to 6 m long and 4 m wide per roof slope, and larger is possible in modules. If the building has a flat roof or a low extension, a mono-pitch roof lantern is often simpler. For business premises they think along about the design; see also roof lanterns for business premises.

• A gable roof lantern follows the ridge of a barn or stable
• Larger than 8 by 4 m? Then it is built up in modules
• Water runs via the bottom rails to the existing gutter
• Have the structure assessed by a builder or engineer

Roof lantern Kootwijkerbroek for a house in the village

In the residential streets of the village itself, it is usually about an extension to a terraced or semi-detached house. A mono-pitch roof lantern is often enough there, from stock in 1, 2 or 3 metres. If you currently have a plastic dome on the roof, first read about the difference under roof lantern or rooflight dome.

If you live further up on the Veluwe, in Garderen for example, the drive to the workshop is a little longer. From Kootwijkerbroek you are there in no time, which is also handy if you want to see a profile or glass sample first.
