Den Bosch is about 75 km from the factory, Tilburg about 95 km and Breda about 110 km. Brabant has many villages with detached and semi-detached houses on generous plots. You see that in the choices people make: more often a larger extension, more often a gable or hipped roof lantern.
Where the garden is generous, an extension is often wider and deeper than on a terraced house. A single mono-pitch roof lantern is then not always enough. A gable roof lantern has two planes meeting at the ridge and is standard up to 6 m long and 4 m wide per roof plane. A hipped roof lantern has four sloping planes and draws daylight from every corner, standard up to 9 m² of glass in one piece.
A mono-pitch roof lantern remains a good choice if the extension sits against a high rear wall or if you want water to drain to one side. Up to 5 m wide, that is possible in one panel without an intermediate bar.
The Brabant long-front farmhouse, with house and stable under one long roof, is typical of the province. Many of these farmhouses have been converted into homes, sometimes with an extension or a converted stable as a kitchen-diner. In such a space daylight often comes from one side only. A roof lantern in the extension solves that.
A hipped roof lantern suits a spacious kitchen-diner with a kitchen island: the light falls on the worktop from all sides. If you cook a lot, make sure of a good cooker hood and fresh air through a window or vent in the wall.
Den Bosch has a historic centre designated as a protected townscape, and Breda and Tilburg also have old cores with their own rules. Tilburg also has many former workers' houses from the days of the textile industry: narrow homes where an extension with a mono-pitch roof lantern brings the light in. In an old core, always check with the municipality first what is allowed.
In Tilburg, you get your roof lantern from DagLichtDesign directly from the maker.

Frequently asked questions about North Brabant
For a wide or deep extension, many people choose a gable or hipped roof lantern, because these give more glass area and light from more sides. All roof types have a standard pitch of 8°. For a narrow extension, the mono-pitch remains the most chosen type.
It is delivered on an agreed date, or you collect it yourself in Barneveld with no delivery charges. A large gable or hipped roof lantern is heavy, so make sure your contractor is there to unload. See also roof lantern delivery in the Netherlands.
The gable roof lantern starts at €2,399, the hipped roof lantern at €3,481. The final price depends on size, glass and colour. Within 24 hours you receive a quote with HR++ and triple side by side.
Usually yes, provided the structure allows it. A contractor or structural engineer assesses whether the roof can carry the roof lantern. The conversion itself may need a permit; check that with the municipality.
