Skylight blinds

Skylight Pleated blinds are part of our electric range and can be motorised for your convenience. Open and close via a remote control for simple light control at the touch of a button.

Our electric blinds are powered by Somfy's marketing leading motorised technology. When fitting your blinds your local advisor will install a small, hidden motor unit that is connected to a remote handset, letting you control your blinds with the simple touch of a button.

If you choose to make your electric blinds Smart, you'll still be able to use the remote, but will also have the option to control your blinds with a mobile app or via voice command. The Somfy  Smart Hub gives you even great flexibility to control the light, privacy and security by connecting to your Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, or mobile phone so you can control your blinds even when away from home

Somfy's motorised and smart technology is available on Roller, Roman, Day & Night, Faux Wood and Wooden Venetians, and Pleated Roof blinds.

Our Skylight blinds are designed to fit most leading brands of skylight window, including VELUX®. Your local advisor will be able to give you more information during your in-home appointment

Our entire range of Roller, Pleated and Venetian blinds can be made-to-measure for skylight windows. Match your Skylight blinds to your window blinds for a coordinated look.

Yes, we have two Blackout options:

1. ROLLER BLINDS

• All of our Roller Skylight blinds are fitted into a Bloc™ frame which is fitted to your skylight window.
• Choose any of our roller fabrics.
• If you want a Blackout Roller Skylight, choose a Blackout roller fabric. This fabric, the Bloc™ frame, and the brush seal at the blind’s bottom edge, all contribute to the blackout properties.

2. PLEATED BLINDS

• We offer fabrics like Lanbury fabrics which are blackout. However, Pleated blinds aren’t fully blackout because of the holes drilled into the fabric.

Thermashade™ blinds are constructed differently. They are made from two layers of fabric which are joined to form honeycomb cells. Choose Thermashade™ Blackout if you want a truly Blackout Pleated blind. They offer superior thermal properties too.

You can easily control your Skylight blind via a dual purpose telescopic pole, which can be used to open and close both your blind and your window.

Alternatively, if you have chosen an Electric Skylight Pleated blind, you can effortlessly operate it via remote control.

• All types of skylights, including Velux and other roof windows
