CONSERVATORIES New slimline aluminium lantern from Wendland Andrew Parmenter » THE SLIMLINE aluminium design is perfectly on trend and its strong ridge means that it has less bars than other lanterns for a minimal look. For those designing orangeries and extensions with aluminium windows and doors, the new Wendland aluminium lantern offers the opportunity to fully suite the project in aluminium products – windows, doors and lantern roof. These aesthetics are sure to appeal to design conscious homeowners as well as architects and specifiers. Not only does the new Wendland aluminium lantern offer modern styling, but thanks to a host of clip-on features there are no visible fixings, meaning that the lantern also looks extremely neat. Wendland has launched a brand new slimline aluminium lantern which is packed with thermal features that avoid condensation build-up, boasts modern good looks and offers great value for money. The 20° pitch has been designed at the optimum angle to ensure that plenty of natural light is drawn into the room below to create a bright and airy interior. Commenting about the new lantern, which is available now, Wendland’s Head of Marketing, Andrew Parmenter, said: “The new Wendland lantern has a slimline design thanks to its aluminium frame and we know that its good looks are sure to make it popular with homeowners and architects wanting a lantern that’s modern in appearance. It doesn’t just look great though, it’s also packed full of thermal features to make sure that condensation is never an issue. From the thermal rider rail to the thermal clips, these features combine to ensure excellent performance – this is very important in a kitchen where heat levels can change quickly. As with all Wendland systems, the new lantern offers the perfect mix of performance and good looks at a great value price point.” Established for over 25 years, Wendland is a great choice and as well as designing technically advanced products, fitter friendly features are always a key factor in the design of its systems, as Andrew explained: “Wendland roof lanterns are designed to be easy and fast to fit thanks to a range of inbuilt features. These include the unique pre-assembled ridgeLOCK system which allows for the rafters to be simply clicked into place at the ridge end for a perfect fit, every time. Other features in the new aluminium lantern to make a fitter’s life easier include clip-on ridge end covers, easy-fit clip-on capping and pre-fitted thermal clips. We’re certain that homeowners and fitters alike are going to love the new lantern.” Made to measure, Wendland slimline aluminium lanterns are perfect for any flat roof extension or orangery and are available in aluminium (grey, white or black) or PVCu (grey or white), with a choice of clear or blue high- performance glass in a range of specifications, or unglazed. Wendland lanterns are always supplied with the least number of rafters possible – fewer than on other lantern systems – for a modern, neat, streamlined look.
