Which blinds are right for your home?

Better control over light and warmth begins with blinds designed for your roof windows.

Crafted to integrate seamlessly with VELUX roof windows, the VELUX blinds collection includes a wide range of styles and colours for both sloping and flat roof windows.

Each blind is made for longevity and ease of installation, with finishes to complement all types of interiors. Subtle textures and thoughtful details help a space feel more balanced, with pleated blinds softening daylight and blackout options better suited to bedrooms.

This guide explores the range in more detail, so you can find the right blinds for your home. 

A well-designed bedroom benefits from a sense of quiet and comfort, where light can be carefully managed to allow for rest. A blackout blind fitted to a roof window reduces incoming daylight and maintains a restful atmosphere, during the day and into the evening.

The VELUX blackout roller blind is a popular choice for bedrooms, offering excellent blackout for a good night’s sleep or daytime nap. There’s a wide range of colours and patterns to choose from, so it's easy to find a style that works with your space, including a Children’s Collection designed for children’s rooms. Cordless operation is designed with safety in mind, and solar, electric or manual options give you full flexibility for how you operate your blinds.

For rooms that serve more than one purpose, a VELUX Duo blackout blind offers extra versatility. Combining a pleated blind with a blackout layer within a single design softens daylight when needed - and gives you the option of complete darkness when the day ends. This can be a great choice for home offices that double as bedrooms.

Living rooms often serve multiple purposes throughout the day, from working and reading, to relaxing and spending time together. This makes flexible light control essential.

VELUX Translucent roller blinds offer privacy and natural light, softening brightness while maintaining a connection to the outdoors. They're particularly well suited to spaces where glare on screens can be an issue, so these make sure you're not squinting on brighter days. A wide choice of colours is available, including the Colour by You collection for a more personalised finish, with thousands of colours to tie into your décor perfectly.

Translucent pleated blinds offer a softer, more decorative approach. Their flexible positioning allows you to adjust the blind on the roof window, giving exact control over light and privacy. Both roller and pleated designs are available with solar, electric or manual operation.

For added comfort, VELUX Anti-heat blinds help keep interiors cooler by blocking incoming heat before it reaches the glazing. This makes them the perfect choice for living rooms and home offices, especially in rooms that get a lot of sunlight throughout the day. They can also offer enhanced noise protection and keep homes warmer in the winter.  

For rooms where insulation is just as important as light control, VELUX Blackout energy pleated blinds offer a more advanced solution. Made with double‑pleated blackout fabric and an integrated aluminium honeycomb structure, they can improve insulation by up to 25%.

These blinds also allow full blackout, making them well suited to bedrooms where both darkness and warmth are important. Electric and solar powered options are available, with app and remote control for ease of use.  

Kitchens and bathrooms are some of the hardest working rooms in the home, so blinds need to cope with humidity and regular use. VELUX Venetian blinds are a natural fit here, with a water-resistant aluminium finish and surfaces that are easy to keep clean.

The adjustable slats make it simple to control light and privacy throughout the day, preserving your view. The cordless design keeps the look clean and uncluttered, with a safer finish for everyday living. A choice of white or brushed aluminium side rails allows the blind to sit neatly within different interiors. 

To stay comfortable in the summer, you can rely on the VELUX anti-heat blind. Its transparent mesh fabric protects against the heat while maintaining your view to the outside, which makes it ideal for rooms where you want cooler temperatures and reduced glare. The VELUX anti-heat blind keeps your room up to 4 degrees cooler.

Choose solar-powered anti-heat blinds for the very best experience and convenience. Electrical wiring isn’t required and the blinds can be easily installed from the inside, so there’s minimal disruption. You can also easily control your blinds remotely, using a wall switch for added convenience.  

How your blinds operate can be tailored to the room and the position of your roof windows. Manual designs offer a simple, intuitive solution for roof windows within easy reach, to give you direct control over light levels.

For higher or less accessible roof windows, solar or electric solutions bring added ease. Adjustments can be made at the touch of a button, for an effortless way to manage light and comfort throughout the day. 

Solar or electric blinds can be paired with VELUX ACTIVE for even more automation and to regulate your indoor climate. It links your roof windows, blinds and shutters, letting fresh air in and limiting excess heat as conditions change. Through the app, you can keep an eye on temperature, humidity and CO₂ levels, or adjust settings to suit your routine. Roof windows can be opened for short periods with a ventilation timer, and multiple products can be controlled together, whether you’re at home or away. 

All VELUX blinds are designed specifically for VELUX roof windows, so there’s no measuring, trimming or cutting required. The authentic VELUX design means installation is always straightforward. Which means you can introduce greater comfort into your home with minimal effort or disruption.

Each VELUX blind is made with to last and comes with a three-year guaranteed for added peace of mind.
