Frequently asked questions

  • General information about the blinds
    • Can I combine a blackout blind with other blinds?

      Yes, the blackout blind can also be combined with awning blinds for additional heat protection and insect screens for an insect free environment. However, please note that you cannot combine electrically operated and solar powered blinds.

    • Is a blackout blind the right solution for my room and needs?

      Blackout blinds are made of a lightproof fabric that effectively blocks out incoming light. They can help to ensure a good night's sleep or a restful nap during the day and are recommended for bedrooms and children's rooms. They are also perfect for home cinemas and guest rooms.

    • When should I select a VELUX blackout blind?

      The VELUX blackout blind is made specifically for original VELUX roof windows. It gives you 100% blackout both day and night and has a reflective aluminium coating on the back that reflects heat from the sun in summer while retaining heat in the winter. It can be positioned anywhere in the window and runs in a slim aluminium top and side channels that is painted black on the inside to prevent light from bleeding in around the edges. Blackout blinds are well suited for bedrooms, children rooms, home cinemas, and rooms where you feel annoyed by flickering street lamps, passing car lights, or simply want to control the light coming in, or reduce heat gain and heat loss.

    • How durable are VELUX blinds?

      Tested to last. Each blind is tested 10,000 times for reliability and durability.

  • Itzala vs. VELUX blinds
    • What is the most significant difference between Itzala and VELUX blackout blinds?

      VELUX blackout blinds are top quality blinds that offer 100% blackout – night or day, as well as effective heat protection. VELUX blackout blinds are made from a dirt-resistant polyester with a special aluminium coating on the back, that helps retain heat in the winter and reflect solar heat in the summer. They come in a wide range of colours with or without patterns, and you can choose between a manual or remote control operated edition. The blind runs in slim top and side channels in aluminium and can be positioned anywhere in the window. The side channels are painted black on the inside to prevent light from passing in around the edges. The VELUX blackout blinds purchased through the VELUX online shop have a three-year guarantee.

      Itzala blackout blinds are quality blinds that can be offered at a lower price as they are manufactured in bulk. They offer almost complete darkness and are very easy to use. The fabric is a hardwearing, dirt-resistant combination of polyester and lightproof rubber. Itzala blinds come in three different colours. The blind fits into and slides in a slim aluminium frame that allows multi-positioning of the blind. Itzala blackout blinds purchased through the VELUX online shop have a two-year guarantee.

  • Remote controlled blinds
    • What do I have to take into consideration when thinking of purchasing a non-manual VELUX blind?

      When thinking about purchasing a non-manual blind, there are a number of factors you may want to consider.

      1. Only genuine VELUX blinds are available with remote control operation. All Itzala blinds are manually operated.

      2. VELUX blinds are also available in an electrically operated or solar operated version. Both are very practical as they allow you to adjust the blinds placement with ease, putting complete daylight control right at your fingertips. Remote control blinds are highly recommended for windows that are out-of-reach, in an extension or high up in a loft, and for windows where you expect to adjust the position of the blind often.

      Electrically operated blinds are only suitable for VELUX INTEGRA® electric roof windows. Solar powered blinds fit all manually operated VELUX roof windows and also all solar powered VELUX INTEGRA® roof windows.

      Both types of blinds are remote controlled, but can, apart from the tilting feature on the electrically operated VELUX venetian blind, also be manually operated. The remote control for the electrically operated blind is battery powered. The solar powered blind is powered by an energy-saving, solar-rechargeable battery, which is good for up to 600 operations even if there is no sun for recharging. Electrically operated blinds are also available with io-homecontrol® for intelligent features, such as scheduling.

      3. Non manual blinds are available in multiple versions. Blackout blinds and Roller blinds are available in electrically operated or solar powered versions. Venetian blinds only come in manually operated and electrically operated versions. Awning blinds are available in manually operated or solar powered versions. Pleated blinds are only available in a manually operated version. Both blinds are remote controlled, but can, apart from the tilting feature on the electrically operated VELUX venetian blind, also be manually operated.

Operation

Manual operation with control bar and stepless positioning

The manually operated VELUX basic blackout blind with control bar runs in aluminium side channels to ensure a smooth operation with stepless positioning. They are well suited for roof windows within reach and are very easy to operate. This VELUX basic blackout blind can be easily be installed with VELUX pre-installed mounting brackets.
