FAQs

Where do I find my VELUX window code?

Open your VELUX roof window and look for the identification plate on the top of the frame. The code, such as M04, will be clearly printed there.

Can I use this blind on non-VELUX windows?

No, this product is specifically engineered for compatible VELUX roof window series and will not fit other window brands.

What does OEKO-TEX certification mean?

It ensures that the textiles used in your blinds have been rigorously tested for harmful substances, making them safe for home environments.

Can I control both the blackout and pleated sections together?

Yes, both sections are fully adjustable and can be positioned independently to create your desired lighting balance.

Is any drilling required for installation?

The blind uses a pre-fitted mounting system designed to fit into pre-installed brackets on your VELUX window, usually eliminating the need for drilling.

Troubleshooting

The blind moves unevenly or catches on the rails.

Ensure the guide rails are free from dust or debris and that the blind is pulled evenly from the center handle.

The blind will not fit the window opening.

Verify that your window code matches the 'M04' reference required for this specific model.

The fabric appears wrinkled or sticks after storage.

Gently manipulate the folds manually and leave the blind fully extended for 24 hours to let the fabric tension reset.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the VELUX Duo Blackout Blind is designed for ease, utilizing the brand's pre-fitted mount system. Before starting, you must open your VELUX roof window and locate the product identification plate on the frame. Ensure your window reference contains the M04 code; this ensures compatibility with GGL, GGU, GHL, GHU, and GPU series. To maintain the blinds, avoid using harsh chemicals. Instead, regularly dust the fabric using a soft brush or vacuum attachment with low suction. For minor spot cleaning, use a damp, lint-free cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap, then allow the fabric to air dry fully in the open position to prevent sticking or moisture buildup.
