How to choose VELUX roof window blinds

Our range of roof window blinds includes several designs, from sleek roller blinds to insulating pleated blinds. But how do you choose the right solution for your home?

The most important factors to consider are the type of room, the orientation of your roof windows and whether they are hard to reach.

In addition, decide whether the main function of your blinds is to darken a room, ensure privacy or enhance your home décor.

Many of our products fulfil several of these needs simultaneously. For example, VELUX duo blackout roller blinds combine a blackout roller layer with a pleated blind for a two-in-one solution. This lets you block out light completely at night and softly diffuse light during the day while keeping your window partially or fully covered for privacy.

Skylight blinds to suit your home

At VELUX, we offer blinds and shutters for every roof window and room. Our Venetian blinds are ideal for bathrooms, while blackout blinds are best for bedrooms. Explore the various designs here to find the right option for your home.

Roller blinds

VELUX roller blinds combine style, functionality and durability. Whether you want to control natural light, improve privacy or add a stylish touch to your interior, we have roller blinds to suit your needs.

Pleated blinds

With VELUX pleated blinds, you get a unique look and flexible light control. Our pleated blinds are available in translucent and blackout materials.

Blackout blinds

Our blackout blinds are perfect for controlling light in your home. Whether you want a calm atmosphere in your bedroom or to reduce glare in your home office, our blackout blinds ensure you get the most out of any space.

The benefits of VELUX blinds

Alongside their light-blocking capabilities, VELUX blinds have several benefits, from easy installation to various operations and intelligent home control.
