Rooflight Shades

Enviroblinds rooflight blinds offer multiple options to shade skylights and roof windows which are prone to overheat because of their exposure to the sun.

Enviroblinds rooflight shades

Shading skylights and windows with rooflight blinds is essential because rooflight glazing can receive almost twice as much heat as an unprotected window of the same area. Retractable rooflight blinds are ideal for protecting roof glazing against solar gain, when it is not needed for passive heating. Now available with solar powered motors for the ultimate energy saving solution!

Enviroblinds Rooflight blinds fully retract into a closed aluminium casing with guide rails that can be RAL colour matched to the frame. A smart cable spring with zipper system keep the fabric perfectly tensioned and secured to the guide rails.  Our  selection of mounting brackets positions the fabric at a safe distance from the glazing with space for roof ventilation. 

Specify from a range of motorised rooflight blinds that operate vertically and horizontally with convenient wireless wall controls and optional temperature sensors. Flush mounted or surface mounted rooflight blinds in single or multiple units for larger expanses of glazing, provide a fully customized solution for your project .

High performance and dirt repellent screens are available in screen fabrics with different openness factors from blackout to 14% light.
