FAQs
Does this blind block out all light?
The blackout portion is designed to provide near-total darkness, making it excellent for bedrooms and nurseries.
Can I use this on a non-VELUX window?
No, this blind is specifically engineered for VELUX roof windows and relies on their unique mounting system.
How do I find my window code?
Open your VELUX roof window and look for the identification plate on the top frame. It will contain the size code, such as SK06.
Is the fabric safe for children?
Yes, the fabric is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, meaning it has been tested and confirmed free of harmful substances.
Can I operate both blinds at the same time?
Yes, the design allows you to adjust both the blackout and pleated sections independently to create the exact lighting environment you need.
Troubleshooting
The blind moves unevenly or catches in the guide rails
Check the guide rails for any obstructions or debris and ensure they are clean. Gently realign the fabric to ensure it is sitting evenly in the tracks.
The blind does not fit the window
Verify that the window identification code matches 'SK06'. If the code is different, the blind is not compatible with your window model.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper installation, always locate the identification plate on the top of your open VELUX roof window. For this specific product, the window code must be 'SK06'. The blind uses a pre-fitted mounting system, which means you do not need special tools or extensive DIY experience to achieve a secure fit.
To maintain the blind, dust the fabric regularly with a soft cloth or a brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the specialized fabric coating or the guide rails. Keep the guide rails free of debris to ensure the fabric glides smoothly without catching.
