VELUX Blinds FAQ

We offer several types of blinds for VELUX windows, both genuine and compatible. The lead time varies between them from several days to a few weeks. For the latest lead times check out the product pages or our delivery lead times.

Also look out for a quicker delivery on some of the most popular sizes and colour combinations of the genuine VELUX blackout DKL blind. See the product description for further information.

All of the genuine VELUX products come directly from VELUX's factories in Denmark or France. Any companies quoting quicker lead times are falsely claiming this, unless of course they are stockists themselves or selling the compatible blinds.

All VELUX blinds and accessories come with a full 3 year guarantee.

Please refer to our returns policy for full details about returning your VELUX product(s).

To operate high windows that you cannot reach, which you require to be opened and closed will need a Telescopic Rod Control (ZCT 200), which ranges from 1.0-1.8m , this will allow you to open and close the window itself - please ensure your window is a GGL/GGU type first. For even higher windows the extension rod allows you to reach 1.0m higher.

Your options for blinds are to either purchase a Remote Control Solar powered blind, which obviously you can operate via the remote. Alternatively if you want a manual control blind, you can purchase 1 Rod Adaptor for each blind, which clips onto the blind, and using the Telescopic Rod Control (ZCT 200) you can open and close the blind.

Yes. However each Remote Control blind you order will automatically come with 1 remote control included. As all the remotes operate off 1 frequency then you can control any Remote Control blind with any of the remote controls which were included. Although, due to the narrow wave length from the remote, it is very unlikely you will be able to operate 2 blinds with 1 click of the remote.

VELUX discontinued the white frame option for blinds as of May 1st 2013. All blinds now come with aluminium frames. Please see our range of Vogue Blinds for VELUX® Skylight Windows which have the white frame option.

You can order genuine VELUX blinds for these windows still, just provide the correct code when ordering and they will be sent with the aluminium frame as standard.

Yes samples are available on most VELUX blinds. On each product page look out for the Order Samples button. They usually arrive in 3-4 working days.

You can also redeem the cost of the samples when you place your order, for more details how this work see our redeemable sample service information.
