  • How to Fit a Velux Blind.
    In this Velux Window Blind Installation Guide video I will show you How to fit a Velux Window Blind, this particular one is a Velux Blackout Blind for a Bathroom in a loft conversion. It is very effective and totally blocks out all light.
    The supplied Velux Blind installation guide leaflet is rather vague so hopefully this will help you fit your Velux Window Blind easily. There are different Velux Blind installation types, hopefully this is the one you need.
    I will show you how to find your Velux Window Code for sizing so that you order the correct Velux Blind. Then I will take you through every step to install a Velux Blind, so that it is easy to follow.

    I'll repeat what many others have said already - this video is a lifesaver! Crazy how unhelpful the official videos from such companies can be. They could really learn a thing or two from TH-cam.

    I would also add, use a cheap and cheerful bradawl to mark the holes and use the correct screwdriver bit for the screws. It appeared the bit used in the video was incorrect and started to round off the screw. It appeared to be a bit bigger than required. If using a drill I wouldn't go quite as deep either 5mm or so should suffice.

    Do you know anything i can do that fill the small gap?

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think it’s common as I’ve got 2 blinds and there is a small gap at the bottom. You could screw some rubber into the bottom or a thin piece of wood so there was no gap
