Step 1 – Open Your VELUX Window
Gently open your roof window so you can access the top edge of the sash (the moving part of the window).
The identification plate is not visible when the window is closed, so you will need to open it slightly to locate it.
Step 2 – Locate the Identification Plate
Once the window is open, look along the top edge of the sash. You’ll see a small metal plate or sticker fixed into the frame.
This plate contains important product details, including:
- Model code
- Size code
- Additional manufacturing information
It’s usually silver, grey, or black with printed text.
Step 3 – Note Down the Window Code
On the plate, you’ll see a combination of letters and numbers.
For example:
- GGL MK04
- GGU CK02
- GPL FK06
The size code (such as MK04, CK02 or FK06) is the most important part when selecting your blind. Make sure you copy it exactly as shown, including any letters.
Once you have this code, you can confidently choose the correct blind size in our calculator.
If you’re unsure or the label is worn or difficult to read, simply take a clear photo of the plate and contact us. We’ll be happy to help you confirm the correct window code before you place your order.

Exceptional Blackout Performance
If your goal is to create a darker, more comfortable room, a VELUX blackout roller blind is one of the best solutions available. The specially designed blackout fabric and close-fitting side channels work together to minimise the amount of light entering around the edges of the blind, making them ideal for bedrooms, children’s rooms, guest bedrooms and loft conversions where controlling daylight is important.
Whether you’re trying to enjoy a lie-in during bright summer mornings, helping young children settle for daytime naps or simply creating a more relaxing sleeping environment, a genuine VELUX blackout roller blind gives you the control to darken your room whenever you choose.
Good to Know
Every genuine VELUX blackout roller blind provides the same excellent blackout performance, regardless of which fabric colour you choose. Your colour selection is simply about finding the style that best suits your home.
Designed Specifically for VELUX Roof Windows
Unlike universal roof window blinds, genuine VELUX blackout roller blinds are designed exclusively for VELUX roof windows. Every blind is manufactured to match the exact dimensions of your window, providing a precise fit and a clean, integrated appearance that looks as though it was always part of the window.
The slim aluminium side channels guide the blind smoothly into position while helping to minimise light entering around the edges. The result is a premium-quality blind that not only performs exceptionally well but also complements the modern design of your VELUX roof window.
Top Tip
Choosing a genuine VELUX blind means there’s no cutting, trimming or adapting the blind to fit your window.
The Perfect Fit Every Time
One of the biggest concerns customers have when buying roof window blinds is ordering the correct size. Fortunately, VELUX makes the process incredibly simple.
Every VELUX roof window has a unique identification plate showing its window code, such as MK04, PK08 or CK02. Simply enter this code into our VELUX Blind Finder and we’ll display every compatible blackout roller blind for your window.
There’s no need to measure your roof window, compare dimensions or worry about ordering the wrong size.
Don’t Measure Your Window
Your VELUX window code is all you need. Our Blind Finder removes the guesswork and helps ensure you order the correct blackout roller blind first time.
A Colour to Complement Every Home
Blackout roller blinds are available in a wide range of contemporary colours, making it easy to find a design that complements your décor.
Light neutral shades help create a bright, modern feel when the blind is open, while darker colours add contrast and work beautifully in contemporary bedrooms and loft conversions. Whether you’re creating a calm, relaxing bedroom, decorating a stylish home office or adding colour to a child’s room, you’ll find a genuine VELUX blackout roller blind to suit your style.
Because every colour offers the same blackout performance, you can choose the design you love without compromising on functionality.
Design Tip
Neutral shades remain one of the most popular choices for modern homes, while bold colours can create an eye-catching feature in children’s bedrooms and playrooms.
Choose the Right Operation for Your Home
VELUX blackout roller blinds are available in manual, solar and electric operation, allowing you to choose the option that best suits your home and the position of your roof window.
Manual blinds are ideal for windows within easy reach and offer a simple, reliable solution without requiring a power source.
Solar-powered blinds are perfect for roof windows that are more difficult to reach, providing convenient remote operation without additional wiring.
Electric blinds are an excellent choice for electrically operated VELUX roof windows and are ideal for homeowners looking to integrate their blinds into a smart home environment.
Whatever option you choose, you’ll enjoy the same premium-quality blackout performance and genuine VELUX engineering.
Buying Advice
If your roof window is positioned high above the floor or above furniture, a solar-powered blackout roller blind can provide convenient operation without the need for electrical installation.
Ideal for Bedrooms, Nurseries and Loft Conversions
Blackout roller blinds are one of the most versatile blind options available for VELUX roof windows.
They’re particularly popular in bedrooms, where reducing unwanted daylight can help create a more restful sleeping environment throughout the year. In children’s bedrooms and nurseries, blackout blinds help darken the room for daytime naps and earlier bedtimes during the lighter summer months.
Home offices also benefit by reducing glare on computer screens, while loft conversions enjoy greater privacy and improved control over natural light without compromising on style.
Wherever your VELUX roof window is located, a genuine blackout roller blind provides an elegant solution for controlling light when you need it most.
OEKO-TEX® Certified Fabrics
Every genuine VELUX blackout roller blind is manufactured using high-quality fabrics that are independently certified to the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100.
This internationally recognised certification means the fabrics have been tested for harmful substances, giving you added reassurance about the quality and safety of the materials used within your home.
It’s another example of VELUX’s commitment to producing premium products that combine outstanding performance with exceptional manufacturing standards.
Simple DIY Installation
Installing a genuine VELUX blackout roller blind is quicker and easier than many homeowners expect.
Most VELUX roof windows are already fitted with the mounting brackets required for genuine VELUX blinds, allowing the blind to be installed without specialist tools or complicated adjustments. Full fitting instructions are included, making installation a straightforward DIY project for many homeowners.
Of course, if you have any questions before ordering, our team is always happy to help you choose the correct blind for your window.
Common Mistake
Many people assume they need to drill new fixing holes when replacing an existing VELUX blind. Genuine VELUX blackout roller blinds are designed to work with the existing VELUX fitting system, making replacement quick and straightforward.

When you choose a genuine VELUX blackout roller blind, you’re investing in a product designed to deliver reliable performance for years to come.
