Old velux roof window

9 replies

AGrinWithoutACat · 28/02/2018 16:39

I have an old velux window in my stairway and want to try and find a blind but cannot find any matches online to the details I can see

It's one of the older black metal framed ones split into 2 panes of glass

No plate information but printed in the glass is "Velux velterm h 59sh m 144406 iPh" the window measures 42cm across and 56 down

Does anyone know if I can get velux blinds or do I go for a made to measure option?

Looking for help please as google is letting me down - thanks for any suggestions

Blinds 2 go are great. We’ve used them for at least 15 windows in the past (most conservatory). They do a perfect fit blind where you measure up yourself and they send you a blind which fits perfectly, as the name suggests ha ha! They are super helpful if you call them and reasonably priced.

If you have pull the window down where the handle is, so physically open the window you will see there will be a GOLD plate on the inside of the window. This gold plate will have a code on it, like GGL S04 for example, this is the code you need to order a new blind.

No - nothing that good unfortunately

It is black metal and the catch at the bottom allows you to open and push the base out from the hinge at the top

Try a company called Morley blinds they supply blinds within the glass

Just wondering whether you got sorted? I am having the same problem with what sounds exactly the same type of window.

It sounds like a conservation roof light. Email velux with all the details and they'll tell you which of their blinds will fit. Then go online for a cheaper alternative. That's what I did. I had velux blinds first for years but after the kids broke them I got copies off Ebay. A third of the price & they function ok.
