Description
Bespoke Manual Blinds for Flat & Pitched Roof Skylights
To ensure the perfect fit for your skylight, measure from plasterboard to plasterboard.
Important: We manufacture blinds to the exact measurements you provide. To ensure a proper fit, we recommend subtracting 10mm from both the width and length. Please refer to our measuring guide below, and contact us if you have any questions.
Enhance the functionality and style of your skylights with our Bespoke Manual Blinds, designed specifically for flat and pitched roof skylights. These blinds feature a manual control system, allowing you to easily regulate light and privacy to suit your preferences.

Whether you aim to reduce glare, enhance insulation, or simply introduce a sophisticated element to your room, our Bespoke Manual Blinds are the ideal solution, tailored precisely to your specifications.
All of our blinds include a 20mm quarter circle PVC trim, precisely designed to fill any gaps after installation, delivering a snug fit and polished look.
Important: All blinds are custom-made and non-refundable if measurements are incorrect. Please review our measuring guide below.
Measuring Guide
To ensure your blinds fit perfectly, follow these steps:
- Measure the Opening: Begin by taking the width and height measurements of your skylight opening from plasterboard to plasterboard. It's important to measure both dimensions accurately for a proper fit.
- Verify Consistency: Measure both sides of the opening to check for any differences. If there are variations—such as one side being 550mm and the other 540mm—use the smaller measurement. This guarantees the blinds will fit the narrowest part of the opening.
- Calculate the Opening Size: After measuring, you will have the precise dimensions of your opening.
- Account for Clearance: Subtract 10mm from both the width and height to ensure sufficient clearance. For instance, if your opening is 2000mm x 1000mm, order a blind that is 1990mm x 990mm.
To ensure there are no visible gaps, we provide a plastic cover that adheres to the plasterboard and frames the edge of the blind.
By following these steps, you can ensure your blind will fit perfectly and operate smoothly within the opening.

Installation Guide
Each blind frame is pre-equipped with screw holes for ease of installation.
1. Positioning Your Blind: Carefully position the blind within the designated recess.
For aesthetic purposes, we recommend setting the blind about 200mm below the glazing, though adjustments can be made according to your preferences.
Note: For flat roof installations, it is beneficial but not mandatory to achieve a level position to enhance the appearance.
2. Marking Drill Points: Securely hold the blind and use a pencil to transfer the positions of the pre-drilled holes onto the wall. These marks will guide your drilling.
3. Drilling: Take down the blind and drill holes at the marked positions on your wall. Follow by inserting the suitable rawl plugs into these holes.
4. Securing the Blind: Align the blind with the newly drilled holes and secure it in place.
5. Finishing Touches: Fit the provided trims around the blind to conceal any gaps. Ensure that the surfaces are cleaned with the included wipe before applying the trims for better adhesion.
This installation guide aims to simplify your setup process, ensuring that your blind is both securely installed and visually appealing.

The ordering process was very straightforward and the staff were very helpful.
The blind arrived ready assembled on a pallet which is a plus. There are no installation instructions included with blind so you will need to refer to the instructions and video on the website. These are very useful and easy to follow.
The blind was quick and easy to install but there was one difference from the description on the website - the trim was described as quarter circle pvc, but there trim supplied was actually angled metal the same colour as the blind’s frame. I would class this as a positive upgrade as it gives a more professional finish.
The installed blind looks stylish and is very functional. It helps to retain heat in winter and shades out the sun to keep the room cooler in summer.
The included pole also makes the adjustment of the blind pretty simple.
My only gripe is that the retailer needs to make customers aware that the blind will have visible wires - the wires should be shown in the photos and perhaps also mentioned in the product description.
When making this purchase I relied upon the website photos which show no visible wires across the window. I was therefore somewhat disappointed when the blind was delivered to find two wires running down the middle.
Aside from this, I’m pretty happy 😊

Skylight factory helped ensure the measurements were correct, talked through what I needed to complete the installation and were quick to ship my order. With the help of their online videos, the installation was simple and skylights look fantastic.

Rapid delivery and the skylights come in a timber frame which makes moving around as easy and safe as could possibly be… very happy :)

Excellent product

Perfect 👌

Very pleased with the service, we were kept well informed re delivery.

Our beautiful skylight arrived in good order and securely packed. Quick turnaround and a nice gesture of including the seal we forgot to add to the order.
We are please with our purchase.

The timber packaging makes moving it onto the roof for install really straight forward and really protects the skylight…. I was really impressed on the finish and install was a breeze when you follow the instructions when forming your openings…. I will deff use again in the future

We ordered three frameless pitched windows from the Skylight Factory. They look great and they were easy to install. And the delivery driver even helped to carry them into the house - which was very helpful.

I love the product

Arrived quickly and brought into the drive.
I’ve fitted quite a few different brands and this buy far is the easiest one I’ve ever had easy to prepare the kerb as sizes clear and exact.

Perfect installation kit to complete the job.

I'm very happy with my buying experience. The skylight was good quality and at a good price.
The skylight came well packed and was secured to a pallet to prevent any damage.
The customer services team was very helpful when making changes to the delivery address. I didn't have to wait in a queue for someone to take my call.
There was only one issue. When the delivery address was changed, my contact phone number was removed from the delivery paperwork, which meant the delivery man was unable to co tact me. Unfortunately, he had to leave and the delivery was rescheduled.
Second time, everything ran like clockwork
I would definitely buy from the company again !
