Please help me find right Velux blind for my windows

Post by Stevie D »

Evening folks,

I've got two Velux windows for which I would like to find some black-out blinds. Here's what they look like. Dimensions show the glass size, as measured from the inside:

Problem is, as far as I can tell, is that the windows lack anything like this:

…which I found on this website, whilst doing my research.
Every VELUX window manufactured after 1968 has a plate in the top right-hand corner of the frame, invisible when the window’s closed, which gives lots of information about the window.
Mine doesn't, and they certainly don't look like they were made before 1968!

Any tips on how to get the info for the right blinds?

Cheers,

Steve

Dead easy ... phone Velux with dimensions and ask them to identify the model number
It always takes longer than I thought
