Roof Lantern & Roof Light Sizes

How big a roof lantern or flat roof light can go, the roof pitch it sits at, and the glazing and colour choices — across our Korniche and Infinity ranges.

Lantern roof vs flat roof light

Both ranges offer two distinct glazed roof styles:

  • Lantern roof — a pitched, multi-panel glazed roof that sits up from the ceiling line, giving extra headroom and a traditional conservatory-roof silhouette.
  • Flat roof light — sits flush with a flat roof for a minimal, almost frameless look from inside, with no visible pitch.

If you'd rather replace an existing conservatory roof entirely with a solid, fully insulated tiled roof instead of more glazing, see our SupaLite tiled roofs page.

Choosing a size & configuration

  • Measure your roof opening (or planned opening) width and projection before contacting us — both ranges are made-to-measure within the size limits above.
  • For very wide openings, a lantern built from multiple glass units (as on Korniche's larger pyramid and rectangular options) spreads the span rather than using one oversized unit.
  • Choose a standard colour (white, grey or black) for the fastest lead time, or a bespoke RAL/BS or dual-colour finish if it needs to match existing frames.
  • Confirm current pricing and lead times with the trade counter before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

What is the biggest roof lantern size available?

Korniche's roof lantern goes up to 6m × 4m (external) for a rectangular lantern, or 4m × 4m for a square or pyramid lantern made from 4 glass units. Infinity's aluminium roof lanterns are also available made-to-measure — check with our trade counter for the exact size range on your preferred style.

What is the smallest roof lantern size available?

Korniche's minimum order size is 850mm × 850mm for a square lantern, or 850mm × 732mm for a rectangular one.

What roof pitch do roof lanterns sit at?

Korniche's lantern roof uses a fixed 25° pitch. A flat roof light (Infinity Roof Light or Korniche Flat-Glass) sits flush and isn't pitched in the same way — it's designed for flat-roof openings instead.

What's the difference between a roof lantern and a flat roof light?

A roof lantern has a pitched, multi-panel glazed roof that sits up from the ceiling line, giving extra height and a more traditional conservatory-roof look. A flat roof light sits flush with a flat roof for a minimal, frameless-looking result. We supply both as separate systems within the Infinity and Korniche ranges.
