Brite Blinds has relocated to 108 Trafalgar Road, Portslade. Click for information on how to find us.Adding blinds to your skylight, rooflight or roof lantern can be the perfect addition to keep your living area cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Skylight blinds can be the perfect way to solve overheating problems in your extension or orangery. With many extensions being built with glass sections to allow light in to the living space there is sometimes a need to control the level of light and UV that can come through the skylights.
From a blinds perspective there isnt much difference. Skylight and Rooflights are pretty much the same thing, they are either flat or pitched to follow the roof line. Skylights are often a bit smaller than rooflights. Roof lanterns on the other hand usually refer to a raised section of your ceiling with the glass section higher than the ceiling level.
What ever you call it we have probably got a solution to shade it
There are three broad categories of blind available for your rooflight windows.
Next-Generation Motorised Lantern Blind – an innovative solution designed for style, convenience, and functionality. This sleek and modern blind combines cutting-edge technology with the elegance of cellular fabric, creating the ultimate window treatment for any space.
Cellular, Honeycomb or Duette skylight blinds are ideal for sloping conservatory roofs or rooflight windows in extensions. As standard these will have gaps around the edges but for a cleaner look in some cases we can fit side channels for a neater look. The blinds are pulled across the window opening on tensioned cords that will be visible when the blind is retracted. For a cleaner look with no visible cords we offer the TrueVue system.
Zipped-edge fabric retention combined with powerful constant-tension spring technology is what makes KuroLok RL the perfect solution for rooflights.
(* maximum area and fabric restrictions apply)
Rooflight blinds can be designed and manufactured to fit virtually any size, shape, angle or age of window. Utilising a wide choice of blind fabrics, every level of shading, through to full dim-out can be achieved.
(Some system and fabric restrictions apply)
