Brilliant blind made to measure to cover over a skylight in the kitchen. Easy to install and fits perfectly. Quite expensive but well worth it to future proof the house against hot weather. Once insta... See more

Good price and very helpful!
Good price and very helpful. The free samples arrived quickly. The instructions for measuring were helpful. The instructions for the installation were understandable! Very quick response time when asked questions. We are very happy with our sky lantern blind. Definitely recommend!

Good website with much information and guides available. Easy to obtain a quote and ask any questions about the product, and easy to order on line.
The electric roof blind is costly, but comparable and competitivly priced when set against other suppliers.
It was easy to install and is a neat and effective unit which does reduce the heat build up in a glass roofed conservatory.
Perfect fit blind
Great service, delivered quickly. Was easy to install on my own, and measurements were perfect. Very happy!
I really appreciated the excellent customer service
I wanted blinds for my roof lanterns to stop the excessive glare from the sun during the middle of the day. With excellent advice from Naomi I ordered some fabric samples which arrived swiftly. I ordered 2 Electric Zip Roller blinds and Naomi was able to arrange the delivery of them at a convenient time. I carefully read the enclosed instructions and watched the very helpful installation videos and as a result the fitting of the blinds went exactly as planned and my wife and I are delighted with the result - the blinds are very high quality, work beautifully and look fantastic. I was having problems programming the remote control with one of the blinds but Naomi was absolutely brilliant at showing me how to solve the problem very quickly. I really appreciated the excellent customer service from this company and I have no hesitation in recommending them.
Wonderful service by Naomi and team
Wonderful service by Naomi and team. The blinds work perfectly and have helped a great deal with heat management in my south facing kitchen.

I had a problem with motor on my skylight blind, it was faulty. I found that the after sales service was excellent. The motor was replaced and guidance was given on installing the new motor and on resetting the limits on the blind. This all being well after a year of purchase.
The blind is now working perfectly and as new.
Thank you to The Skylight-Blinds

Well made lantern blind, simple to assemble and easily fitted.
The large roof lantern blind that was supplied by Skylight Blinds-direct is very well made, simple to assemble and was easily fitted by two people using only four fixings into the opening. The opening into which it is fitted must be accurately measured to the millimetre to ensure a good fit. It was supplied very quickly and is of a very high quality, but still lightweight. The concertina blind slides very easily.
This is a very useful product
This is a very useful product. I installed the blinds myself, and although it was a bit difficult doing it alone, the guidelines provided were very helpful and allowed me to fit them properly.
I must say the after-sales service is exceptional. I forgot to arrange the insurance, but they contacted me to let me know they had already done it on my behalf and even sent me the certificate.
Great service and a good-quality product. Keep up the excellent work!
Large electric roof lantern blind
I had been looking for a particular blind without tension wires for a large corrector/orangery roof lantern - skylight blinds direct were able to make one for me in the dimensions I needed.
It arrived carefully folded up ready to be re-assembled and fitted.
They kept in contact regarding order progress and delivery dates etc and were there if I needed help with any questions along the way which fortunately I didn’t need to ask. A lot of the information I needed was on the website and the installation videos are very helpful. I Definately couldn’t have put together and installed the blind correctly without the comprehensive videos and help on the website.
The blind is installed, working and looks great! My wife and I are really pleased with it! It has taken a long time to find the correct blind for us, and the particularly large size made it difficult to find a company who would make it for us.
Although we installed ours ourselves, I would absolutely recommend having any large blinds (ours is 4.9 meters long!) professionally installed as this was not an easy task - trying to carefully lift and screw up a 5 meter long frame high above your head into a plasterboard ceiling recess is not something I would like to do again!
Thanks to skylight blinds direct for our blind 👍🏼
Very helpful in explaining the correct…
Superb service from start to finish. Most helpful in explaining the correct type and size blinds we needed for our skylight Dakea windows.
They were easily fitted and work brilliantly.
Great service
I was a little apprehensive about whether this blind was right for the purpose we intended, but Skylight Blinds, were extremely helpful from the outset, guiding me on the correct type and method of power. On delivery I had some difficult getting the blind to work (which was my fault in part, although the instructions could do with a little tweak!). All in all a great experience highly recommend and would use again if I ever need a replacement or blinds for another location.

Absolutely top quality service from start to finish with all questions answered and help. Now fitted it works perfectly and very tidy and very easy to fit. Great look and blocks out the light perfectly. Thanks everyone

Brilliant experience ordering a blind for our lantern. Came back to check that I had understood what I was measuring rather than just trusting I had got it right which was reassuring. Blind arrived on time and worked straight away.
Highly recommended
The whole process was really easy from start to finish. Fitting was a doddle and perfect. The blind functions perfectly and as it is blackout it leaves the room dark as it is supposed to. Naomi took us through it from start to finish with 5 star service.
