    Will have a guest visiting for Christmas. I need to shove one of the family up into the attic but will need to put blinds on the Velux window because its very bright up there in the mornings. Where can I get a good price in Dublin? Some places have vicious prices, and I can't afford three figures for each blind - also need it installed. Would appreciate recommendations for Velux or economical alternatives please.

    Piece of pi55 to install them yourself.

    Anyone who knows what a screwdriver is can install them in no time at all.:)

    Solar..........no need for any wiring

    Rechargable Battery Pack in the blind unit that charges up from daylight/sunlight.

    Small hand held remote ( 2 x AAA batteries) that opens and closes the blind,you can open them all the way or just open them a little so suit your own light requirements and mood.

    They also help to keep in the heat too.:D


    Loads of colours to choose from too.:)
