A roof lantern in Limburg is made to measure for you in the DagLichtDesign factory in Barneveld. In short: a quote within 24 hours, a lead time from 2 weeks after approval and delivery on an agreed date. Your own contractor fits the roof lantern.
Venlo is about 120 km from the factory, Maastricht about 185 km. Limburg is a long province with two faces: the flatter north around Venlo and Venray and the hilly south with marl, half-timbering and courtyard farms. You see those differences in the homes, and so in the roof lantern that fits.
South Limburg has many closed farmsteads: farms where house, stables and barns are grouped around a courtyard. Anyone converting such a farmstead often wants to cover part of the courtyard or turn a barn into living space. A roof lantern on a canopy keeps the spot dry and light. A roof lantern in the roof of a converted barn does the same for the space below.
With old walls, the connection is the most important detail. A wall-abutting lean-to roof lantern connects to the wall with a wall abutment profile plus an EPDM lead replacement or zinc flashing, with the right profile for each wall type. If you have an unusual wall, such as marl or old natural stone, agree the connection in advance.
Around Heerlen, Kerkrade and Brunssum, many mining colonies were built in the first half of the last century: districts of terraced and semi-detached houses for miners. These homes are often compact, with a small kitchen and a garden behind. An extension with a mono-pitch roof lantern adds space and light without changing the character on the street side. In the north, around Venlo and Venray, you mainly see post-war districts and detached homes in the villages, where an extension with a mono-pitch or gable roof lantern is the usual solution.
Some old districts and buildings in Limburg are protected. In that case, check with the municipality first what is allowed; the article roof lantern on a listed building or in a protected townscape helps with that.
At 120 to 185 km, delivery is the normal route. Agree the date as soon as the upstand is ready, and arrange help with unloading. Allow for the lead time: from 2 weeks after approval, up to 8 weeks for complex custom work. There is more on this under roof lantern lead time.
For a long trip, preferably order everything at once: roof lantern and connection profiles. A wall-abutting lean-to roof lantern is delivered to measure including upstand and connection profiles, so your contractor does not have to wait for loose parts.
