If you are looking for a roof lantern in Nijkerk, the maker is close by. The DagLichtDesign factory is on the Donkervoorterweg in Barneveld, about 18 km from Nijkerk. Outside rush hour the drive takes twenty minutes to half an hour. Every roof lantern is made to measure there, from the thermally broken aluminium frame to the glazing unit.
DagLichtDesign makes and supplies, but does not install as standard. Your own contractor or builder does that, using the printed and digital installation manual included with every delivery. If you would rather hand over the installation, it can be arranged on request through a regular installation partner. It then appears as a separate line in the quotation.
Nijkerk is an old town on the edge of the Gelderse Vallei. Around the historic centre lie post-war residential districts, and in recent years new housing has gone up on the edges of town, for example in Doornsteeg. You can see that mix in the questions that come in about roof lanterns.
With older buildings and terraced houses, an extension often sits against a taller rear wall. That is where a wall-abutting lean-to roof lantern fits: it connects to the wall on the high side and lets in light from above and from the side. The connection profile is matched to the type of wall, whether that is brickwork, render or timber cladding.
In terraced and semi-detached houses from the 1960s to the 1990s, it is usually about a rear extension with a flat roof. A mono-pitch roof lantern is the usual choice there, with a standard pitch of 8° for good drainage. The 1, 2 and 3 metre sizes are always in stock.
Because Nijkerk is so close to Barneveld, collecting it yourself is a good option. It can be done by appointment at the factory, with no delivery charge. Do bring transport that is long enough and in which the glass can stand upright and be secured firmly. Read beforehand how collection in Barneveld works.
Rather not drive yourself? Then the roof lantern is delivered on an agreed date, for example the day your contractor has finished the upstand. How that works is explained under delivery across the Netherlands.
Many of the extensions in Nijkerk and the surrounding villages are built by local contractors and builders. They can order directly from DagLichtDesign, at trade prices from the very first project and with no minimum order. Anyone doing more than three projects a calendar year receives a partner discount that is applied directly in every quotation.
Want to see what you are buying first? The workshop in Barneveld is open by appointment. You can look at a finished profile and a glazing unit there, and from Nijkerk it is a short drive. Hoevelaken, Nijkerkerveen and Putten each have their own page, covering the homes and questions of that place.
A roof lantern in Hoevelaken often replaces something that is already there: a yellowed plastic rooflight dome on the extension or garage.

Frequently asked questions about Nijkerk
Delivery time is from 2 weeks after approval, and the mono-pitch in 1, 2 and 3 metres is always in stock. Complex made-to-measure projects or a specific glass choice can take up to 8 weeks. Thanks to the short distance, there is hardly any extra time between factory and site.
Not as standard. Your own contractor or builder installs it, using the installation manual for each roof type and telephone support on weekdays from 7:00 to 17:00. You can ask for installation by the regular installation partner to be included in the quotation.
The roof lantern itself usually does not need a separate permit. The extension sometimes does, for example for a building in or near the historic centre. Check this with the municipality of Nijkerk before you order.
A photo or sketch with the approximate dimensions is enough; a construction drawing is not required. Within 24 hours you have a quotation in your inbox with glass options, delivery time and price. The quotation remains valid for 30 days.
