The short answer

As a roofer you order a made-to-measure roof lantern directly from the factory in Barneveld, with a lead time from 2 weeks and an installation manual with connection details for EPDM, bitumen and zinc. If you order for your clients as a trade business, ask about the contractor prices. Telephone support is available on weekdays from 7:00 to 17:00.

Why a roof lantern suits a roofer's work

A roof lantern in a flat roof stands or falls by its connection to the roof covering. That is exactly a roofer's job. If you are renewing a roof, it is the ideal moment to replace an old rooflight dome or add a new roof lantern. How that works is explained in replacing a rooflight dome with a roof lantern.

The roof lantern arrives ready-made from the factory. You build the upstand and the watertight connection. That saves hassle with loose parts, and you know in advance exactly what is arriving on site.

Connection details for EPDM, bitumen and zinc

Every delivery includes a printed and digital installation manual per roof type. It contains the connection details for the three common roof coverings and a step-by-step plan for the upstand, insulation and sealing. A CAD file is available on request, useful if you want to include the detail in your own drawing.

For each roof covering, read more about the connection in connecting to EPDM, connecting to bitumen and connecting with zinc.

Frequently asked questions

Can a roofer install a roof lantern?

Yes. The connection to the roof covering is roofing work, and the installation manual contains the details for EPDM, bitumen and zinc. For lifting and placing large roof lanterns you will need extra hands or a crane.

Do I get contractor prices as a roofer?

Contractor prices apply to contractors and building firms. If you order for your clients as a trade business, ask about the contractor prices and you will hear what is possible for your company.

Which roof type suits a flat roof best?

On a flat roof, the mono-pitch roof lantern is the most popular type, also when it replaces an old plastic rooflight dome. With its standard pitch of 8°, water drains away quickly. A wall-abutting lean-to, gable or hipped roof lantern can also go on a flat roof.
