To identify the brand, type and size of a window already installed in your home, look at the reference on the window plate at the top of your window. The window plates differ in appearance depending on the model of your window. For an illustration and explanation of a VELUX window plate, visit our "Size Finder", where you might use our size chart to identify the code for your VELUX roof window.
Itzala blinds not only fit VELUX and FAKRO roof windows, but Keylite, Dakstra, Dakea and RoofLITE as well. However, Keylite does not list the size on the identification plate.
