Roof lanterns are a practical solution for bringing natural light into a building. They improve visibility, reduce reliance on artificial lighting, and make interiors feel more open. At Trafco, we supply Korniche Roof Lanterns, a high-quality, easy-to-install option designed specifically for builders and contractors.
Korniche Roof Lanterns are suitable for a wide range of projects. Their strength, reliability, and straightforward installation make them a go-to choice for builders who need a product that performs consistently on site.
Strong and Reliable Construction
Korniche Roof Lanterns are engineered for durability. Aluminium frames combined with die-cast components provide structural stability while keeping the overall weight manageable. This design allows for wide spans, up to 6 metres by 4 metres, without additional internal supports.
The strong construction ensures that lanterns withstand all weather conditions. Heavy rain, wind, and occasional snow will not affect performance. For builders and contractors, this reliability reduces on-site issues and ensures the product will meet client expectations long-term.
Maximising Daylight
Korniche Roof Lanterns feature narrow sightlines, meaning more glass and more natural light. This helps create brighter interiors, whether in offices, retail spaces or extensions.
Natural light reduces the need for daytime artificial lighting, supporting energy efficiency. For builders, this is an easy selling point for clients and a practical feature for any project.
Easy Installation
Korniche Roof Lanterns are designed for fast and straightforward installation. Pre-engineered components reduce on-site cutting and adjustments, helping contractors save time and labour.
The lanterns can be fitted using standard tools by skilled tradespeople. This makes them ideal for projects with tight schedules or multiple units being installed. Quick installation also helps reduce disruption on site, which is particularly useful on commercial or multi-unit residential projects.
Thermal Performance
Korniche Roof Lanterns include thermal breaks in the aluminium frame, which reduce heat loss and maintain stable indoor temperatures. This makes them suitable for projects where energy efficiency is required.
High-performance glazing options are available, including double-glass units with low U-values. These help keep spaces warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Self-cleaning glass is also available, reducing maintenance and making the product easier to manage once installed.
Flexible Design Options
Korniche Roof Lanterns come in a range of sizes, shapes and colours. Standard finishes include gloss white, matt grey, and matt black, with custom RAL colours available. Inside and outside colours can be different, allowing builders to match client requirements and project aesthetics.
This flexibility means builders can specify lanterns for any project type and scale, ensuring the finished result meets both functional and visual expectations.
Benefits for Builders and Contractors
Korniche Roof Lanterns offer several advantages for builders and contractors:
Durable frames capable of spanning large roof areas without additional support
Quick and simple installation to save time and labour
Thermal efficiency with low U-value glazing and thermal breaks
Low maintenance with self-cleaning glass options
Customisable sizes, colours, and finishes to meet project requirements
These benefits make Korniche Roof Lanterns a practical choice for any builder or contractor looking for a reliable, high-quality glazing solution.
Planning Considerations
When specifying roof lanterns, builders should consider:
Size
Ensure the lantern fits the roof area and ceiling height
Glazing
Choose the correct glazing for thermal performance and light requirements
Colour and finish
Match the finish to the building’s exterior and client requirements
Maintenance access

Proper planning ensures that the lantern meets both functional and aesthetic expectations, reducing potential issues on site.
