Skyseal Laminated Glass Roof Lantern

What Are Skyseal's Laminated Glass Roof Lanterns?

The Skyseal Laminated Glass Roof Lantern delivers high performance, fast lead times, and a sleek finish for flat roof applications. Ideal for a bathroom skylight or kitchen flat roof skylight on an existing roof, Skyseal helps maximise natural light, creating bright, inviting interiors.

The Standard 4-pane glass roof lantern is available in 3-5 days, while 6-pane and bespoke sizes are delivered in 10-15 days from the point roof lanterns start production. Suitable for residential projects and extensions, Skyseal is designed to enhance kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms with lasting visual impact.

Contemporary and Classic Appearance

The Skyseal glass roof lantern range adds architectural character to modern and traditional spaces. As a specialist roof lantern manufacturer, Skyseal offers two design options:

• 4-panel roof lanterns minimise the framework to maximise daylight, making them ideal for modern homes and south-facing rooms.

• 6-panel roof lanterns feature additional glazing bars, providing a classic aesthetic that suits heritage properties.

Both styles provide the core benefits of roof lanterns, including increased daylight, improved ambience, and a stronger indoor–outdoor connection.

Laminated Glass for Enhanced Safety

Every Skyseal glass roof lantern features toughened glass on both the inner and outer panes as standard, providing robust and reliable performance for everyday use.

For those seeking an additional level of protection, laminated glass is available as an optional upgrade on the inner pane. In the event of accidental breakage, laminated glass helps retain fragments in place, reducing the risk of falling glass.

This makes it a popular choice for family homes or frequently used spaces, offering extra peace of mind.

Slim Aluminium Frame

The sleek, slim aluminium frame adds to the lantern's contemporary aesthetic while providing strength and durability. Each Skyseal glass roof lantern is designed to be of high quality, with attention to every detail, including the impact resistance of the laminated glass and how easily installers can accurately and securely install it.

Type of Glazing & Glass Options

Selecting the appropriate glass and glazing is crucial for optimal performance and comfort, particularly when balancing light levels, thermal efficiency, and solar control.

• Clear Self-Clean Glass – maximises light transmission and simplifies cleaning the glass

• Blue Solar Self-Clean Glass – reduces solar gain, ideal for south-facing rooms.

Low-e solar coatings reflect heat efficiently while still allowing generous daylight to enter, with performance that may vary depending on orientation, room usage, and glass specification.

Planning Permission & Permitted Development

In most cases, installing a glass roof lantern on a flat roof falls under permitted development, particularly for rear extensions and single-storey projects. However, planning permission may be required for listed buildings, conservation areas, or significant alterations to these areas.

We always recommend checking with your local authority before installation to confirm compliance with planning permission requirements.

Glass Roof Lanterns Cost & Bespoke Sizes

The Skyseal range offers excellent value across both standard and bespoke options. While roof lanterns vary in size, glazing specification, and frame colour, our streamlined manufacturing process ensures competitive pricing without compromising quality.

Bespoke sizes are available to suit your project requirements and can be manufactured to precise external measurements. An upstand width of at least 85mm is recommended.
