Great product and excellent service

We've now had our blind up on our large kitchen skylight for a month and it is proving to be a real asset. In recent hot, sunny weather the kitchen was cool instead of baking; now, when the nights are drawing in, the closed blind creates a cosy atmosphere. Excellent service from the team at Skylight Blinds, from measuring and ordering help to reminding me about the guarantee. Fitting the blind wasn't easy due to its size, but it was a worthwhile task with a positive result.

It’s a great blind no wires going across the opening
My blind was very large 4.100x3755 you have to make it upside down and then turn it over which was not easy being that size
I have fitted hundreds of conservatives if I was still working I would recommend this blind to all of them

electric roof lantern blind

I ordered an electric roof lantern blind from Blinds direct.
The blinds are good value for money and are of a great quality. The blind was easy to install, looks great and has kept the harsh sun off our furnishings.

Lantern blind

Easy instructions for measuring followed by delivery of a very well made blind. Installing was a two person job which was easy after watching the installation videos. I’m very happy with the blind that works just as described.

Great service from start to finish

Great service from start to finish, always responding quickly to any questions. Good quality product and easy to handle due to light weight. Anyone with some basic DIY skills can assemble and install these blinds, but be sure to read the (very good) instructions, and to take care with your measurements. Very pleased overall!

Lantern blind success

Having had the lantern blind in place during some of the recent very hot weather we are very pleased to have it installed in time to reduce the sun's heat in our garden room. Installing it ourselves we appreciated the emphasis on precise measurement accuracy pre ordering. The pre sales literature clearly defined the types of blind and the benefits of the different options. The assembly and installation guide was good and helpful but could be edited to improve some point in the process. The customer support team were excellent throughout the order, dispatch and post delivery support (Naomi was great). We consider this a very cost effective purchase.

Hi Michael, i'm so glad you got it installed just in time! I can imagine how satisfying it must have been sitting in your garden room during those recent scorchers, nice and cool thanks to your new blind.
You obviously did everything by the book with the measuring and research, which shows. We always say the preparation is half the battle with these installations, and you clearly smashed it.
Really useful feedback about the assembly guide - we're always tweaking and improving our instructions based on what customers tell us works well (and what doesn't!). I'll make sure Naomi sees your lovely comment too - she'll be thrilled.
Thanks for such a thoughtful review. Hope you get loads of enjoyment out of your garden room!
Each response feels conversational and genuine while acknowledging their specific points about timing, measurement, customer service, and value for money.

Great product

My blind arrived on time, was well packaged and installation instructions clear. I managed to get it in place before the most recent heatwave and it has made all the difference.

Hi Adrian, sounds like everything went like clockwork! And what perfect timing with the weather. There's nothing better than being prepared when Mother Nature turns up the heat. Thanks so much for the lovely feedback!

Great service and blinds!

Great communication, delivery when promised. Installation fairly easy (once I'd properly read the online instructions!), and Noami very responsive when I had misunderstood one of the steps trying to set up the smart control on the blinds, and helped me resolve. All in all a great service - thank you!

Roof blind for conservatory

We ordered a roof blind for our conservatory. It arrived well packaged. We had a few issues working out how to fit it, but we're given guidance from Skylight. Definitely a 2 person job. We are very happy with it, as we have been able to use the conservatory, even in this hot weather we've been having. Would recommend this company.

Hi Nancy, thanks so much for your lovely review! So glad you're getting proper use out of your conservatory again! There's nothing worse than having a lovely space that becomes unbearable in hot weather. You're absolutely spot on about it being a two-person job - we always recommend having an extra pair of hands for the installation. Great that our team could guide you through the tricky bits when you got stuck.Thanks for the recommendation and for sharing your experience. Hope you're enjoying many more comfortable hours in your conservatory!
