How to Measure Skylight Blinds

Skylights are measured a little differently than other windows - all you need is to locate your skylight window code. We've listed our code knowhow below - plus what to do if yours is missing.

How to Measure for Skylight Blinds

Finding the right blind for your skylight could not be more simple. All you need to do is locate the product code on your window. If your window is very old, or you can’t find the product code don't fret - you can also measure the glass to figure out what your code should be.

Finding Your Code

You’ll first need to determine the brand of your skylight window. We currently offer skylight blinds for the five main manufacturers including Velux®, Fakro®, Keylite® Dakstra® and Rooflite®. If you have another brand, please get in touch with us either on the live chat or by giving us a call. Once you've found your code simply head over to our Skylight Blind section to see our full range.


For Velux® Windows

Your Velux® window should have a metal, plastic or sticker plate on the topside of the frame as you open the window. This plate or sticker contains codes, numbers and possibly a barcode. All you need to do is identify part ‘a’ and part ‘b’ as shown in the diagram to the right.

Code ‘a’ is a three letter code, such as GGL, GPU or VFB. Select this code in the ‘Window Type’ dropdown box.

Code ‘b’ is a string of letters and numbers, or numbers only, such as UK08 or 102. Select this code in the ‘Window Size’ dropdown box.

For Fakro® Windows

Your Fakro® window should have a metal, plastic or sticker plate on the topside of the frame as you open the window. This plate or sticker contains codes, numbers and possibly a barcode. You will be looking for the numbers in part 'B' of the diagram.

Code ‘B’ above, is what you need to focus on. It is a string of numbers, such as 78/98 or 55/78. Select this code in the ‘Window Size’ dropdown box - the codes on our site will match the size on your window.


For Keylite® Windows

Your Keylite® window should have a metal, plastic or sticker plate on the topside of the frame as you open the window. This plate or sticker contains codes, numbers and occasionally a barcode. All you need to do is identify the window size code. The window size code will either be a number or a number and a letter, for example 03 or 04G.

Make sure you take note of whether or not the number is followed by a letter, as these are different sizes. Window size 04A is different to 04, for example.

Simply select the relevant window size code in the dropdown box. *Please note 'T' Codes are new and can only be purchased directly from Keylite*
