Description
Introducing our Electric Blinds, designed for flat and pitched roof skylights as well as roof lanterns. These innovative blinds combine convenience with technology, allowing you to adjust lighting and privacy with the touch of a button.
Our electric blinds feature a quiet, motorised system that can be controlled remotely, making it effortless to create the perfect ambiance in any room. Available in a variety of materials and colours, they enhance both functionality and décor. The blinds provide excellent UV protection, helping to keep your room cool and protect your furnishings from sun damage.
For those seeking a blend of luxury, convenience, and efficiency, our Electric Blinds are the ideal choice, ensuring optimal light control and privacy.
Installation is straightforward: simply screw into the dedicated holes.
Important: Please read our specifications before purchasing. All blinds are made to order and are non-refundable if measured incorrectly.
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 electric blinds are made to order and non-returnable. Please ensure all measurements and details are accurate before completing your purchase.
Please note that our off-the-shelf size blinds are 85mm smaller than the selected size. This accounts for the timber batten (25mm) and plasterboard (12.5mm) on each side, leaving a 10mm gap for the blind to fit.
Specification
The size of the electric blinds is 515x815mm.
Please note, our off the shelf size blinds come 85mm smaller than the size shown on the picture. Assuming you’ve built your skylight per our recommendations, this is to account for the timber batten (25mm) and plasterboard (12.5mm) from each side thus leaving a 10mm gap for the blind to fit in.

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.
For Hardwired Models: Make sure the wire faces the glazing for improved aesthetics and functionality. These models should be professionally installed.
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.

from 97 reviewsExcellent 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 !
Recently purchased flat roof skylight. Great service, great communication great product and great price. Easy to install - bringing in light to a dark end of my kitchen
Great online service including delivery
Product super quality and fitted perfectly
Very impressed with the skylight I received. Would highly recommend this company
I'll be honest, I was a tad sceptical with this product as an add-on for the skylight. However, I'll hold my hands up and admit I do see it's purpose and need. Just because other manufacturers don't sell/require it, doesn't mean it's not worth having.
Really pleased with the unit, delivery was a bit slower than expected but company did recognise this and put it right. The skylight arrived extremely well packaged, standing braced on a pallet, easy to see if there was any damage, of which there wasn't.
Our company will use these guys again.
