No hesitation in recommending this product

Very pleased with the two honeycomb open view electric blinds we purchased.
We have a very handy brother in law who fitted the blinds for us and found them very straightforward. We had a few queries re measuring and ordering but our queries were answered very quickly by Steve and Naomi. Nothing too much trouble for them.
Excellent service and have no hesitation in recommending the product.

We’re so pleased to hear you’re happy with your honeycomb open view electric blinds – and sounds like your brother-in-law did a great job with the fitting (always handy to have one of those in the family! 😉).

Steve and Naomi will be chuffed to hear their help made a difference – we’re always happy to answer questions and make the process as smooth as possible.

Thanks again for the kind words and the recommendation – it means a lot to the whole team!

Great service and quality. Needed help with window code and help was given without a problem. Window blinds are easy to fit, good quality and the best price I found. Would recommend A+

100% recommend Skylight Blinds Direct for DIY fit and guidewire-free lantern blind

Skylight blinds direct were the most competitive price out there, after doing our research. We had a 2.9 x 1.7m lantern that during summer months made viewing the TV from one side of the room difficult due to glare. SBD offered a quick quotation with a guide-wire-free blind solution. After picking material colours and combinations from the free sample pack in the post, we placed our order and were updated on its status regularly. It arrived with tracking, well packaged too. The installation and setup was fairly straightforward, and it fitted the gap well! We opted for the small addition of ‘Goolgle/Alexa smart functionality’ as well as the remote control, this is invaluable as many devices in our home run off the same technology. We look forward to seeing how the blind performs in the winter as well as the summer in keeping the heat in and out when needed! Thanks again SBD, would 100% recommend!

Thank you so much for the brilliant and detailed review! 😊

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that your guidewire-free lantern blind has made such a difference – and that everything from pricing and sample selection to delivery and installation went smoothly. It’s great to know the glare is no longer getting in the way of your TV time! 📺☀️

The smart functionality is such a handy feature, especially when you’ve got a connected home – glad to hear it’s proving useful already! We’re confident it’ll perform just as well come winter too.

Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback and for the 100% recommendation – it means a lot to the whole SBD team!

Pleated thermal blinds 1.8m sq

The pleated thermal blinds were 1800x1800mm and arrived accurately cut to within less than 0.5mm so they fitted perfectly. Easy to open and close manually, let a good amount of light through and glow diffuse white in the moonlight. Very happy with them.

We’re delighted to hear your 1.8m pleated thermal blinds were such a perfect fit – we pride ourselves on precision, so it’s great to know they slotted in just right. It’s also lovely to hear they’re letting in that soft, diffused light during the day – and even glowing gently in the moonlight 🌙✨

Manual Skylight Blind

Great experience from the moment i asked for a call back to discuss my order.
They bent over backward to make it a pleasurable experience, they even called me each week to ensure everything was ok.

Even after I received my order, they called me to see how the installation went and if we needed help.
They even offered to video call to help with anything.

Installation was quick and easy. All installed within an hour but is definitely a 2 person job to install.

We’re absolutely thrilled to hear you had such a positive experience with us from start to finish. It’s always our goal to make the process as smooth and supportive as possible, so it’s great to know the regular check-ins and offer of extra help made a difference.

Fantastic to hear the installation went smoothly too — and yes, for larger blinds, a second pair of hands definitely helps!

Over the moon!

We bought our Skylight from 'Skylight Blinds Direct'. We visited a few company websites before hand but 'Skylight Blinds Direct' stood out to us with everything clear and straight forward when it came to the order form. Considering how much you are spending it is nerve-racking selecting everything online. It's a bit like D.I.Y. check once and double check again and again! Fortunately for us it all worked out and we have a great working product we are over the moon with.
I went for an anthracite honey comb skylight with a solar panel.
I managed to put this up with my partner

Firstly amazing service from Naomi and the skylight team

Firstly amazing service from Naomi and the skylight team. From start to finish I was kept updated and supported.

I purchased one electronic solar skylight blind with Alexa control for to see if I was able to install myself first. I like to say installation and fitting was easy as described. I had to install in situ as I had a lip around my roof lantern but not a big problem. So happy I purchased the second blind straight after and took me half the time to install as I knew what I was doing.

Electric and Alexa control was definitely the way to go . Price was reasonable compared to with other companies.

Very happy

Mr Chan

Large LanternLITE roof blind

After researching several companies, I chose Skylight Blinds-direct. Any questions I had were answered very quickly by Naomi so I went ahead and ordered a 2.5m x 4m LanternLITE Honeycomb roof blind for the conservatory. Using the fitting video to assist, I successfully fitted it myself. What a difference, absolutely fantastic and best of all, my wife loves it. I highly recommend Skylight Blinds.

Skylight blind installation

Skylight blind arrived when expected and was well packaged. It all went together very easily and with the help from another person and two wooden tee bars it was installed with no dramas and works a treat . I look forward to the sunny days when I can close my blind and keep the glare off. Thank you.

Honeycomb Openview Blackout Roof Lantern Blind

The Blind in anthracite with mid grey fabric blends lovely with our anthracite lantern and it is neat when in position. We bought it to reduce the cold from our double glazed lantern and it does that very well. Naomi and Steve have been very helpful both during purchase and with any questions upon receipt plus it arrived ahead of schedule.

A great experience

Firstly I couldn’t make my mind up but ongoing Conversations with Steve ie measuring up correctly then what sort of blind , Naomi came up with the honeycomb absolutely right it has made a huge difference whereas before in the evening we sat in the other room as the cold came through the skylight but now it’s made such a difference to the running of the heating so a big thank you to All the team they all went the extra mile fully recommend the company.
