All VELUX solar and electric blinds are designed to work beautifully with our roof windows, and they’re available in a wide range of colours to complement your home décor. See all of our interior blinds here. Here are some of the most popular styles:
Blackout blinds
Ideal for bedrooms and nurseries. These blinds block out light completely, helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer—even in broad daylight.
Roller blinds
A simple, elegant way to reduce glare and soften sunlight. Available in a variety of colours and opacities to suit any room.
Pleated blinds
Let in natural daylight while reducing harsh glare. The softly structured design brings a touch of texture and warmth to your space.
Awning blinds
Fitted externally, awning blinds block sunlight before it hits the glass, helping to reduce heat inside. They’re transparent, so you still get the view without the uncomfortable heat.

Easy installation – no stress, no wiring (if you don’t want it)
You don’t have to be a DIY expert to enjoy the benefits of our electric blinds or our solar blinds. If your VELUX roof window already supports electric or solar operation, installing your blinds is as easy as clicking them into place using the pre-installed brackets.
Solar-powered blinds are especially simple: no drilling, no wiring, and no electrician needed. Just mount, pair the remote, and you’re good to go. Prefer a professional installation? VELUX can recommend qualified installers near you.
Smart savings, better energy use
Solar and electric blinds aren’t just convenient—they’re smart. By managing how much light and heat enter your home, you help reduce your reliance on artificial lighting and climate control systems.
Close the blinds during the hottest part of the day to keep cool. Open them in winter to let in warming sunlight. And if you pair them with VELUX ACTIVE, the system will do it all for you automatically.
Small changes can add up to significant energy savings and a more comfortable home, year-round.

Whether you’re finishing a loft conversion, building your dream extension, or simply want more comfort and control in your day-to-day life, VELUX solar and electric blinds are a smart upgrade.
From peaceful bedrooms and productive workspaces to bright, airy kitchens, they help you create a home that feels just right morning, noon, and night.
