Take control of light and heat with exterior roof window anti-heat blinds and shutters
Your roof windows are brilliant for bringing in light and fresh air, but when the sun really starts to heat things up, it helps to have a little backup. That’s where our exterior anti-heat blinds and shutters come in.
Our exterior anti-heat heat protection blinds effectively block out strong sunlight before it even reaches the glass, helping to stop rooms from overheating. But they do more than that – they also cut down on outside noise from weather, insulate from the cold, and add an extra layer of protection and privacy to your windows.
Available in both electric and solar-powered versions, they’re simple to use and make life easier. Whether you’re trying to sleep through a summer heatwave, keep the nursery cool, or just lower your energy bills, VELUX exterior anti-heat blinds and shutters give you practical control with a smart, modern finish.
Enjoy year-round comfort with exterior anti-heat blinds and shutters
Exterior anti-heat blinds and shutters are one of the simplest ways to make your home feel more comfortable all year round. In the summer, they prevent the sun from heating up your rooms by blocking the rays before they even touch the glass. In the winter, they improve your window insulation, helping to retain warmth indoors and reduce heat loss.
And there’s even more to it. The aluminium construction also reduces outside noise from weather, whether it’s heavy rain, or wind, they give you a quieter and calmer indoor atmosphere.
With VELUX exterior blinds and shutters, you’ll notice the difference in every season:
- Cooler in summer: Blocks out sunlight before it enters your home
- Warmer in winter: Improves insulation and energy efficiency
- Quieter all year round: Helps reduce noise from the weather
- Darker when needed: Total blackout for bedrooms and daytime naps
Made to match, built to last
VELUX exterior anti-heat blinds and shutters are made to the same high standards as your roof windows – with durable materials, clean design, and long-lasting performance. Crafted from tough aluminium, they’re put through their paces in harsh weather conditions, from heavy rain and strong winds to hail and intense sun. So, whatever the forecast says, you can count on them to do their job.
The slim, low-profile design sits neatly against your roof, so it won’t affect how your home looks from the outside. Whether your house is modern or more traditional, the shutters blend in beautifully, giving you extra protection without blocking the view or changing the character of your home.
