Excellent quality blinds that were incredibly easy to measure and install after i fitted the first one.They fit my skylight perfectly and block out the light exactly as described. Customer service was also very helpful and responsive throughout the ordering process. Highly recommend.
Helpful Report
The product is excellent and very easy to fit. The reason for 4 starts, is that the long lead time and the failure to keep me informed. Would I but again Yes, especially as I now know what to expect on deliver. The order email needs to include the expected deliver date. They did miss one info request, but all others very quick response.

Arrived as advised. Easily assembled and installed. My only regret is not paying extra for the remote option but the pole works perfectly and the blind keeps out the searing heat. Would recommend photo supplied when just fitted. Finishing off still to do.

I had several issues with the blind, none of which were the fault of Skylightblinds direct, but their assistance was much appreciated (one was the parts delivered had been damaged in transit and the other was a cut cord). Before purchasing, I researched the market and several installers wanted circa £3000 to fit a similar blind. I purchased mine for less that £1000 and fitted it myself, with the help of my son. The online instuctions were useful and made the task much easier.

Good quality blind, delivery time is a bit long but they do warn of this. Easy to fit and install, works for what we needed.

Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear you're pleased with the quality of your blind and found it easy to fit and install. As each blind is made to measure, production can take a little longer, so we really appreciate your patience and are glad it was worth the wait. Thank you for your support!
Really pleased with our purchase of the manual blind for our kitchen roof lantern. The item was very easy to assemble and had been manufactured to the exact size stated and so fit our lantern aperture perfectly. The blind operates perfectly due to the quality of the materials. I fitted the blind by myself by screwing two temporary long screws into the aperture to support the one end of the frame whilst I held and fixed the other end using the supplied screws. I did the job during this very hot weather we're having and the moment I drew the blind shut I felt an instant drop in temperature. We have left the blind closed during this hot weather as we chose the none blackout version that let's light through and have been amazed at how much cooler it has made the room. Super smooth experience ordering the blind and good communication from Skylight Blinds up to and including the delivery. We would highly recommend this company to anyone shopping for a Skylight/ roof lantern blind.

Thank you for your kind feedback. Knowing your blind was an exact fit and quick to install is wonderful to hear. We hope it serves you well for many years, and we really appreciate you choosing Skylight Blinds Direct.
I had very good communication and advice as I was buying my skylight blind - The window/skylight was a Roto fitting and Skylight reproduced the exact measurements on the info plate embedded on the frame . When it arrived (a few days earlier than predicted) it fitted perfectly and I was able to fit it myself very easily. I chose an Anti glare material which has massively reduced the solar heat coming in. Essential in this heatwave. It looks great too. I'm delighted with it and defininely recommend this company.

Thank you for such a thoughtful review. It's wonderful to hear our advice helped you choose the right blind for your Roto roof window and that manufacturing it to the exact specification resulted in a perfect fit. We're also pleased it arrived ahead of schedule and that you found it easy to install yourself. It's fantastic to know the anti-glare fabric has made such a difference during the recent heatwave while still looking great. Thank you for your recommendation—it means a great deal to us.
The blind arrived and it was really simple to install. All the hard work had already been done. The blind is wonderful and does exactly what we needed it for. Very happy.

We're delighted the blind is doing exactly what you wanted and that you're so happy with the finished result. Thank you for choosing Skylight Blinds Direct.
I am very happy with my skylight blind. It keeps the sunlight from the skylight out of my kitchen but lets in the light. Previously, the only way to keep the kitchen cool in such hot weather was to cover the skylight with a tarpaulin outside on the flat roof which made the kitchen so dark. Now it's cooler and lighter. My son installed the blind with no problem at all using your online fitting instructions. Brilliant, thank you.

Thank you, Lynda, for taking the time to share your experience. It's lovely to hear your new skylight blind is keeping the strong sunshine at bay while still letting plenty of natural light into your kitchen. Knowing you've been able to retire the tarpaulin and enjoy a cooler, brighter space is exactly what we hope our blinds will achieve. We're also pleased your son found the fitting instructions easy to follow. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope you continue to enjoy your blind for many years to come.
Excellent product for a large lantern roof. Installation instructions were very clear and product does the job perfectly. Given size of latern roof and associated blind (which is quiet light), did require 3 people to hold and fit but not complicated!

Thank you for your fantastic review. It's great to hear the blind has been the perfect solution for your large lantern roof and that the installation instructions made the fitting process straightforward. Larger blinds can certainly benefit from an extra pair of hands, so we're pleased to hear everything went smoothly and that the finished result is exactly what you were hoping for. Thank you for choosing Skylight Blinds Direct.

Excellent purchase! Amazing service and was delivered before I expected it to be. Very straight forward to assemble, and looks fantastic up. It feels high quality when using it, although I’d say the only slight negative was the quality of the pole, which feels slightly flimsy when using. Otherwise, I cannot recommend enough!
